Spec's for building Plex Media Server to handle multiple 4k streams

All, I am new to this forum so apologies in advance is I am not using it properly. I have roughly 35 TB of media that I am currently using PLEX to manage and stream. I have noticed over the last few years that everything is slowing down. I want to build the ultimate PLEX Media Server. My clients are mostly the latest Amazon Fire TV's (4k support) and at any given time I could have up to 4 simultaneous movies streaming. I also tend to stream and download new content at the same time. My plan is to build a rack mountable server, rack mountable RAID and use my desktop (current PLEX Media Server Windows 10, i7-3820 CPU @ 3.6, 32GM RAM as a client to control PLEX (downloads...) from my office. I am open to OS, server spec's and hot swap-able RAID storage suggestion. I also running Gig E and have the latest Netgear NightHawk X6 for my router. Any and all suggestions are appreciated including rack mount information.
