Happy New Year! Thanks for reaching out, and I appreciate your loyalty to our content. Congratulations on your new DS923+! It's a robust choice for a NAS upgrade. Regarding your plan to use it as an Emby Media server, you've made a solid decision. The DS923+ is well-equipped with a powerful AMD Ryzen R1600 processor, offering ample performance for your media needs, supporting MKV, MK4, MP4, FLAC, and MP3 formats.
For your specific use case, the DS923+ should work seamlessly. However, considering Emby's transcoding demands, upgrading the memory might be beneficial for smoother performance, especially if you plan on serving media to multiple devices simultaneously. While Synology-branded memory is recommended for optimal compatibility, some third-party options may work as well.
