DS224+ uses J4125 which is what my DS920+ uses and does plex transcoding perfectly fine

False.
224+ has Intel cpu and GPU.
Hardware transcoding works great on this box.

DS224+ is Intel, not AMD. Just stop posting.

Literally just bought the DS923+ from Amazon for 593$. Think Amazon with price match this offer, or should I buy and return?
Return and wait for the sale.

Quote from JKimRX :
I'd say the 1522+ is worth it even at $600… considering the 8gb ECC and 5th bay. Otherwise, the specs are identical to 923+.
Where is it for 600? I usually see it for much higher.
Will wait to see if it goes on sale for 560$ like it did on prime day otherwise will spend the 600$.

Excuse my ignorance, I haven't dealt with NAS since 2016. Is there an app that backs up my photos on my iPhone anywhere in the world? Like apple cloud or google drive?
Yeah, they have an app for that, and you can set how and when you want your photo to backup. I did an international trip and was able to back up my photo from my phone remotely.

Love my j224+, runs my plex server and active backup without issue. I had two 8tb drives so loaded them up and off to the races.

Transcoding is required for remote play
No it is not required, you can direct play remotely. I have ds918+ but almost always use direct play because the quality is better, you just have to set the remote streaming quality to original/maximum on each plex app you use.

Good luck living in the dark ages. You realize the standard is 4k now right?
As others have pointed out, you can (and should) use "Direct Play" remotely.

Simply ensure your client devices are configured to use maximum/original quality for both audio and video.

You can also easily Direct Play 4K remotely as well.

Simply ensure your client devices support HEVC (x265) which is the most widely used format for 4K at the moment.

Any 4K capable device will support HEVC. A $20 Fire stick 4K supports HEVC as well as a $20 Onn 4K streaming stick from Walmart.

Please do your due diligence before spreading misinformation.

Thank you.

Hoping Amazon matches these when they start at B&H Photo and Newegg!

You cannot ask Amazon to pm anyone, but you can ask other competitors to do so. I had limit myself shopping at Amazon because of that reason. When there's a deal, even at Amazon, I tried to ask other competitors (Bestbuy / Target / etc) to pm to Amazon or other site. Why? Because if the price goes lower again, I can still ask for PM again. Amazon will never pm, and when you do returned it, they count points against you. Amazon had some cases of blocking accounts (by name and shipping address) for doing too many returns.

Asustor has this ability. I use it and it's been good.

These are great. I have the ds224+ running my Plex server, photo server, and general active backup. You can find ram really cheap on ebay and it helps a lot with performance. I have pretty low requirements for this kind of unit but I honestly don't have any complaints about it as is.
