DS1621+ is a very good choice. It is a Ryzen quad-core model which is great for virtualization. It has no multimedia chip, but it does cope even with on the fly conversion if you happen to need it.You can use Crucial memory to upgrade the RAM. Synology will try to sell their own RAM with warning messages, but the performance is the same.Having 10GbE will only help if you upgrade your PC if you connect directly. You would need to change switch and cabling if all network needs a boost.I hope this helps.
