Keep using the NAS as long as it keeps being useful. Just for moving some services off onto something else, it sounds like you could just get a low power minipc of some sort and run your services there. An N100 or AMD APU would work just fine for Plex (transcoding on Intel may be a bit better).
If you'd rather go the extra mile and build a larger machine with a disk array, you don't need anything super wild for the CPU or memory based on the services you've listed.
