From mackdack that I always use for reference :

DS224+ (also 920+, 423+, 220+, 720+, 1520+) supports 4k transcoding with inbuilt GPU (rest Synology does not or very incapable). Adding RAM also help in overall performance. DS224+ is Value buy for first time Plex users (add more RAM to make it 6GB . RAMs are very inexpensive )

QNAP TS-464 has everything you need for Plex but little expensive.

FYI: 4k transcoding is mostly needed when you want to play your Plex content on mobile/ipad (assuming you have plex pass). On home TV, you rarely need 4k transcoding.

For non-Plex users , most of the NAS are fine.

The 923+ does transcode, it just doesn't have GPU acceleration.

Great prices! Considering getting the 4bay but I'd love to replace my DS1512+ with a 5bay.

The 4 bay has an AMD processor and won't transcode. You'll need to wait and see if they ever drop something with an intel chip

I'm a NAS newbie - I bought the DS224+ from Microcenter a few weeks ago, and put 2 of the 12TB refurbs ($75 each) into it. The synology software really is worth the extra money to buy these, vs any cheaper alternatives. If you are considering getting one, just do it, HIGHLY recommended.

Where'd you get 12tb for 75?

does synology still mark the drives as yellow or give you a warning for using your own hard drives and not synology branded ones?

Can any of these models, including the TS-464, support simultaneous playback of three to five 4K videos?
Additionally, how smooth is the process of dragging the video slider to search for timestamps?
Does it perform similarly to a local hard drive?
