How did you get the 4x M.2 expansion board from Topton? Their Aliexpress store doesn't list it and it isn't an option for the MiniPC. Did you message them or something?
Depends which version you bought, C - with straight heatsink fins or B - with Y fins? A - doesn't support the daughter board. Or just share the link to the product page so we can be sure.
I have this case for the 2G Ram 32G SSD Wifi + J3160 2LAN 1COM by EGLOBAL and it has been running Opnsense solid for about 5 years, top fins measure 36C. Maybe the N100 runs too hot for it.
N100 is overkill for opnsense but nowadays its the same price as the old J processors so might aswell just keep it. Why don't you buy another mini PC for your home assistant? These things are dirt cheap if you keep the Ram/SSD to minimum needed.
You really need to give the full model numbers because the first part is not the whole story, e.g.
WD80EMAZ-00M9AA0 air
WD80EMAZ-00WJTA0 helium
WD80EDAZ-11TA3A0 air
