The important thing I would look at is the idle power, because most of the time it will just sit the mre and wait for you to connect.
Dedicated NAS hardware is quite good with that, but there are nice DIY mini servers which are also very low power.
I do recommend TureNAS for this, it has been fun for me to work with and i started with 0 background or experience.
Thanks for the recommendation!
