I'm mostly happy with my WD PR4100 which has hardware encoding for plex server if you like that stuff.
I'm being forced over to the latest hardware OS very soon so that may change but it's been pretty decent since late 2016.
the PR2100 (2 disk version) may be worth a look though not sure it has the same features.

I'm about to lose all of my Pi setups for (mini) NAS, home assistant, pihole etc...
They just aren't stable enough - my guess (and it is just a wild guess) is because of power problems.
UPS would be fairly straight forward, no? Just plug a USB battery pack in series.
I have an OTP NAS that is mirrored to WD MyCloud (terrible interface, terrible NAS OS, but does the basics), which is in turn synced to locally to a desktop and then to my own S3 VPS.
[Edit] just looked at your links. I have the MyCloud EX2 Ultra.
Don't get it.
As I mentioned - it does the basics, but it's a very locked down OS / virtual container, and i've had to do some fragile af fuckery on it to make it work as I would like (e.g. having seamless integration with my desktop over ssh).
