Hello Adrian, thank you for reaching out to us. Considering your requirements, the DS923+ is indeed a powerful NAS model that could potentially be considered overkill for a home user primarily using it for music and photos. However, since you also plan to add Hikvision cameras in the near future, the DS923+ would offer you better performance and capabilities, making it a more future-proof choice. It's worth noting that the DS423+ comes with a graphics chip that allows for remote access to CCTV up to 4K resolution, whereas the DS923+ with its Ryzen processor is limited to 1080p remote access. Both NAS models can function effectively as CCTV servers, so you'll have a reliable solution regardless of your choice. Happy NAS shopping and feel free to explore our channel for more valuable information. Best regards!
