The DS115j has only 256MB of RAM, that's not very much... I'm only on 570GB or so, but LMS takes up ~145MB of RAM. I know there isn't necessarily a linear correlation, but I assume your database to be quite a bit bigger than mine right now, and that wouldn't leave much for the rest of the NAS. I'd advise against it, it probably won't really run as well as it could (as you noticed). You could always try of course - that never hurts. An RPi4 could work as well, but I had some issues in the past getting it properly stable. If it works, it works well, but it can be a bit of a hassle to get it set up right (seeing the files on the NAS etc., updates breaking LMS...) If you are really looking for the optimal machine: Invest in a new NAS, is what I would recommend. The Synology LMS package is as stable as it gets, as far as I've seen. Something like a DS216+ runs absolutely splendid, and should be available for a relatively good price by now. Keeping the data and server on one machine also eliminates the need for an extra device in the network.
