F5-422

#1
I have a Synology 1821+ that handles all my storage needs ( plex is a no-go on it ) for now and I do not want to open it up to more risk than needed
So I have purchased an F5-422 ( maybe should have waited for 423 but have no idea when it will be available so ... here we are)

Please help me get the most out of the two devices ( There is no way I can delete all the data off my Synology )
So I was thinking PLEX on the F5 (hardware x265) with all the movies and tv shows downgraded in quality ( shows 720p and movies 1080p ) - storage and speed concerns
I will be having the 2 rj45 1 GBE teamed on the switch and the 10 GBE directly to my PC,
will upgrade with an extra 8Gb RAM module
The raid will be TRAID so I can expand it as I can afford bigger drives (or hand-me-downs from the Synology NAS)
Also, I was thinking I could use USD enclosers to expand the storage ( can the TerraMaster DAS be used here? )

Another idea is to have my documents/photos on the F5 and back up to Synology
