Hello. I have Synology DS215j right now. I use it to backup my Photos and some critical documents. I wanted to use it to store my music, notes from phone (replace Google Keep), calendar, contacts, some financial spreadsheets - BUT - it's extremely slow. I mean UI. For backing up my photos and docs it's good enough though I'm sad that backup takes a lot of time, and browsing photos even in local network is slow. I moved email and calendar/contacts to fastmail, passwords to bitwarden but I wanted to give Synology another try. But I want fast working, responsive solution. I wanted to run some docker containers (for some notes and finance/music stuff) and I really don't know if DS220+ is enough (how much ram?) or should I use DS723+ or DS923+ - and with or without NVMe cache drives and how much RAM would be necessairy? I'd like to browse UI services smoothly. Can you help with that? Thanks
