I just built a similar setup. Same case, i5 10th Gen 6-core, ASRock itx/tb3 board, 32gb ddr4 3600 ram, 1tb nvme for cache, and 3x16tb drives from goharddrive on eBay. Whole setup cost around $1100 but it'll run all the *arr containers and jellyfin and I'll have 32tb usable storage. Coming from an rpi4 with a single external 10tb drive... This is a big upgrade. So excited!
Your case has probably got enough spare space that the airflow is good, with all my drive slots filled up I was finding that the temps were getting high, especially during a parity check with everything stressed. So I updated to Noctua PVM fans and used the Dynamix fan control plugin that keeps things nice and cool.
What I love is that with 6 bays, you can potentially get 100 TB usable in that tiny little package if you go for 20TB drives, and you can add them over time, something you could not do with a NAS. The Unraid USP.
