4 vs 5 for NAS vs Emulator? (self.raspberrypi)

Currently have Pi4 4GB running emulation station quite well. Thinking of preordering 5 (4 or 8gb depending on advise from here) and getting into the Pi NAS game, should I swap them round or will I be happier with the 5 as the NAS?

I don't know exactly what your emulation station consists of, but you say its running well...a reason for the 5 as the NAS would be the PCIe capability. I run my NAS over USB on a 4 and it works ok, but you will definitely get better results with PCIe
