NAS Buying Beginner?

#1
Hi,
I am trying to buy a NAS. I'm beginner to this. After watching a few of your YouTube videos, I have a few questions.

Usage:
1. 2 Desktop/Laptop + 4 Mobiles + TV [1080p-not planning to upgrade to 4k any time soon]
2. Mostly for Picture, videos backups + Movie Storage
3. Watching movies/Videos on above devices

Questions:
1. Do I need transcoding? [My files are mostly in 720p or 1080p]
2. Is it better to have 2+5 Bay [DS720+ with DX517] or 4 Bay [DS920+] performance wise? I am planning to use 8TB HDDs with BTFS & SHR.
3. If I add DX517 later, do I have to increase the RAM of DS720+?

Thanks in advance
