NAS to replace Qnap TVS-h874T-i9-64G - Enquiries - 09-13-2024

Hello !
I would like to build a NAS to store everything I could imagine for a while on it.
I will also have a big part of it dedicated to business needs, as well as some part of it for personnal plex usage that could transcode ~3 4k streams to 1080p.

I've never build a NAS, but I'm a developer so I don't mind the learning, as I already manage my own servers (bare metal, OVH) and such.

I would like to have at least 80TB storage space; I was thinking about 12x 12TB in RAID 6 of IronWolf PRO Nas disks. Having 2 or 3 nvme to have a fast cache seems like an excellent idea. One of them will probably be used as OS as well ?

By looking to your video that describes the best NAS for Plex, which is my requirement that needs the most power, I though of the following 2 components:
1) MB+ CPU : ERYING-Kit 14900HX https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005007445741820.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.0.0.7f4asIo5sIo5Pu&mp=1&gatewayAdapt=glo2fra
2) Case: Jonsbo N5 NAS;https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005007724666260
