Sounds like a pretty good configuration.
You'll need to manage your virtual switches correctly for those 2x 10GBe connections and make sure that you're using the remaining ports for the NAS itself, either by link aggregating them or binding to particular services.
Each virtual switch will give your NAS a dedicated IP address - so make sure they're reserved ones on your DHCP server so they don't keep changing every time you reboot your router.
I's suggest setting your DHCP range from (say) 51 to 254 - then using 1 to 50 for your fixed network devices (Router / NAS / Managed Switches etc...)
Hope this helps.
