Ready to upgrade my Synology NAS?

#1
10 years ago Synology 110j....
5 years ago Synology 216+II...
Now???


Bought into Synology originally to cover 1 IP camera with remote access, store my music and video media and stream using DLNA, and backup my PC and phones.

Updated 5 years ago as added a second IP camera, 110j getting very slow and less DSM support, and wanted to add RAID, hence the 216+II with 2x4TB WD Red drives.

That worked well, for 3-4 years, but is getting full, slowing a lot, and remote access is incredibly slow and unreliable.

So, thinking of up'ing to a 4 bay.

Want to stay with Synology. Budget not too important. Want top speed so processor, memory and maybe SSD cache (?) important, but only for single user so LAN speed of 1Gb/s is fine (IMHO), and whatever RAID is deemed the best.

Have recently updated my whole WiFi/router system to Linksys Velop mesh, with an MR9000v1 router and 3 WHM03v2 repeaters, all of which seem to be working really well, and which I can reliably and quickly access from worldwide, so I'm happy they are not a bottleneck.

Have watched some of your videos, I'm thinking maybe the 420, 720 or even 920.

I want it for the next 5 years, minimum.

I'm open to suggestions, with justification of course.
