NVR1218 is not discontinued. Its HDMI port can be used to connect a screen to monitors camera feeds in a direct way. You can not use this port for movies or anything else.There is no other difference between other NAS models like DS920+. You can access the surveillance system via Ethernet instead and have the same functionality.It is good to go for the dual LAN model. You can have a separate disk or separate RAID which is connected via its own LAN. So all these recordings do not slow down bandwidth toa NAS and do not slow down the main disks. Celeron based NAS is also a very good choice for multimedia.I hope this helps.
