OK IT nerds, Im looking to buy an NAS server for my Plex library that I share with my kids. Currently I have my Plex server on a laptop that is standalone for Plex and store my files on a 4TB external HDD synced to the laptop. Generally speaking I have few issues unless all of us are streaming at same time. Still having a NAS would help me remove some clutter and provide better service into the future. Although Imdecent with computers I am NOT in IT or at that level, so simpler the better.
I am looking at these units:

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B017M4J6B0?...droidcent08-20

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B015S0Y50M?...droidcent08-20

are any of these worth it or do you have better suggestions? Could a dummy like me install and work on these with relative ease?
