Yes, I would keep those bays empty. In the future, you can add more drives if you need more storage space.
Since you will run OS and apps on NVMe, having SATA SSD cache would make no sense (2000MB/s versus 500GB/s).
You could set up separate RAID on those bays for backups. Or maybe a hot spare.
I hope this helps.
