What's max hd capacity?
How's the software?
Fast enough processors on this for basic serving of media (assume Plex is on another machine)
That being said, every nas provider has their similar story. I stick with qnap for their hw value -this specific system doesn't seem like a good value unless you need the most basic NFS/SMB/iSCSI rack mounted storage with 10gbe. That arm cpu won't help you with Plex unless are your clients are directplay only and no hw transcoding required. DDR3 also is a red flag for performance and lack of versatility should your needs grow
Personally, I'm waiting for x86 version

On eBay I'm seeing companies liquidating their Xeon W servers (Skylake era, so it supports ddr4 ecc) with excellent single core performance relative to the price and enterprise hardware taxes.
Decided to buy one, got my server for around $130 without a hard drive, ram, and GPU. You can get all of those and get them all and way more and even another working one for the price difference of this.
If you have cheap electricity and cooling, by all means go Xeon. If you're like me with a 12U rack in the garage (on the hot side with poor air circulation), thermal management is what I prioritize.
