That is a cool NAS. I can't find where the CPU in that one will do hardware transcoding so you might run into imitations with that one being the Plex server if you have to transcode on the fly. Generally if you are streaming from that NAS to a Plex app in your home it won't be a problem unless the device is a lower res than the source.

You don't have to buy Synology RAM. I am running the RAM I linked to on pg 2 of this thread and it has been solid. Way cheaper than buying from Synology.

I would totally go for the 10Gb expansion card and connect it to your UniFi gear on a 10Gb port. Mine has been solid and while I'm not saturating the 10Gb, I'm fairly certain I would saturate a 1Gb connection.
