NAS and Hard Drive

#2
For a small two-person office, you generally do not need to upgrade the memory of your Synology NAS unless you will be using it for virtual machines or running Docker containers. In that case, you may want to consider adding more memory to the NAS.

As for the NVMe cache, it's typically recommended for larger offices with more than 10 users. If you only have two people in your office, you probably don't need the NVMe cache.

In terms of hard drives, the Synology Enterprise HDD series can be loud and may not be the best choice for desktop units. Instead, you might want to consider using Western Digital Red or IronWolf drives, which are designed for NAS systems and have a good balance of performance and reliability.

In summary, for your small two-person office, a Synology NAS with a moderate amount of memory and high-quality desktop hard drives like the Western Digital Red or IronWolf drives would be a good choice for your storage server.
I would look at ds420+ or ds923+.
