Yes, Qnap 72XT series or 88X with Thunderbolt card would be an excellent choice.
I would go for i5 and above including Xeon based models. This CPU will ensure you get the best 10gbe/ Thunderbolt speeds and still have enough power to run multiple apps simultaneously.
Seagate EXOS are enterprise-class drives with long life expectancies. It is a good choice just like Pro drives.
Each HDD works around 200MB/s mark. Having 4 HDDs will result in 500MB/s speeds. This would mean 5GbE LAN. Using NVMe for storage would result in faster speeds. 5Gbe/ 10Gbe would be good options.
SSD cache is normally used to boost HDD RAID performance. People go for it if SSD RAID seems to be too expensive. But so often people create two RAIDs. SSD for live projects and HDD RAID for archives.
Here are few cache SSDs https://nascompares.com/answer/best-nvme...r-caching/
All smart / USB based UPS will work. https://nascompares.com/cheapest-ups-for...-qnap-nas/
With Qnap you will be able to install a backup app on your computers in order to back up. You can also back up your cloud accounts.
I hope this helps.
