My advice is to make sure you have plenty of RAM. You won't just install Plex. You probably want your NAS to download and manage the videos and all those applications take up extra RAM.
What is using the ram? The arrs? My media server uses hardly any ram with plex, jellyfin, and a lot more....
Yup, the arrs and transcoding also takes up a bit of RAM. I mentioned RAM because some entry level NAS isn't designed for anything other than file storage.
