Thanks for reaching out. For what you’re planning, the QNAP TS-464 is the best fit. It’s part of QNAP’s 64 series, which offers an ideal balance of power, expansion, and ease of use for Plex and photo storage.
It has a fast Intel processor with integrated graphics for hardware transcoding, dual 2.5GbE ports for smooth 4K streaming around your home network, and support for M.2 NVMe SSDs if you ever want to add caching or a small SSD pool later. The system can handle multiple users, large 4K media libraries, and remote access without issue.
With four drive bays, it’s easy to start with a few drives now and expand later. Using RAID 5 will give you both speed and redundancy, and you can grow capacity over time up to 80TB or more.
If you want something that just works right out of the box with strong Plex performance and long-term flexibility, the QNAP TS-464 is the one to get.
