Mega-Power NAS - Enquiries - 05-01-2025

I am replacing a Syn DS214+, bought new. I keep them long, so want to go very high end. Want 4+ bays, SSD caching, maybe also SSD storage pools, ability to run and transcode via Plex, quite a bit more.
Considering QNap TVS-h464 at a minimum for the display, bays and CPU, but leaning TVS-h674-i5-32G-US to get the i5 CPU. But that will push $3K nicely configured.
Is that rational, and is there a better way to get 4+ bays, SSD cache, 2.5Gb ethernet and transcoding with a decent software ecosystem?
Thanks.
