Let me know if you still want to try an older Plex version with your Ultra4. The latest pre 1.0 version was 9.17.3 but it was not that stable so I used 9.16.6 with no issues until upgrading to OS6 on my Ultra4 Plus and then ultimately replacing my Ultra4+ with a 626X. That said, you may only be able to stream DVD quality from the Ultra depending on the file format you use. You may have to 'optimize' all your files if you have a lot of 1080P quality.
FYI, if you have the time here is the link saying why they stopped supporting the older NAS: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/222704/where-can-i-download-the-last-version-of-plex-media-server-for-the-readynas-os-4-ros4
