Looking to get my first NAS

Hey guys, I have 2 TB of media currently which I would like to move from my computer to a NAS. I noticed a lot of people want plex servers but I don't know the advantages of this over DS Video for example? I hope to be able to stream the movies from my NAS to my own PC for example, maybe to the TV downstairs when watching stuff over chromecast. I'm a student, so I assume when I go home my brother will want to watch things over his PC too or Xbox for example, I doubt it will hardly ever be used on devices such as iPads.

I have been looking into the DS214Play, DS215+, and some others. I honestly don't know whats best and what to consider. Hopefully someone can give me some advice :) My library consists of mostly 1080p and 720p videos.

Also, does a wired connect work? For example, if the NAS was connected to my PC does that mean I can connect to it directly and access the files that way for example. Hopefully not a dumb question, and if anyone can help thanks!
