What do you think? Mini PC + 4-bay HDD dock

#1
What do you think of the following as a NAS/home server?

Biggest performance bottleneck?

Will I be able to run the harddrives in a RAID array over the USB connection?

PELADN WI-6 Pro Mini PC, Intel N100 12th gen, 8GB DDR4, 256GB M.2 PCIe SSD, 1Gb ethernet
£ 132.42 GBP https://amzn.eu/d/0iTa2m5v

to connect over USB-C 3.2 cable to

SABRENT 4 bay hard drive docking station
£ 249.99 GBP https://amzn.eu/d/05KsjoJ2

I already have Gigabit LAN with switch. Netgear D6220 modem/router for WiFi AC and internet (35Mbps down, 8Mbps up).

In order of importance, I want it for:
Backup & storage - incl. a few family members remotely
Data sync (replacing OneDrive etc.) - local & remote, only me
Photos sync & management - incl. a few family members remotely
Films - only me, to a VLC app on an Amazon Fire TV stick, Jellyfin?
Home Assistant - local & remote, to control LED lights and to add to
Tinkering - writing websites, Linux, VMs, containers
