The RN516 has a fast CPU. It can transcode 1080p using Plex.
if you want a powerful NAS it is a good option. The main con would be the price. It is significantly more expensive than the 316, but then if you have a need for speed or a need to transcode 1080p the 716 is a great choice.
The EDA500 would have a separate volume. Some would consider getting multiple 516 instead or a 516 and a 316.
