It’s not much data, and I think you can just let Wordpress find the assets on disk, not keep them as blobs in MySQL. I’ve used Drupal for this sort of thing in the past - it’s designed exactly for this use case. It’s not too difficult to use, and has a wealth of useful plugins or add ons. There will be other (non-PHP) CMS you could consider, but I’ve not used any of them in anger.
