Hey everyone!
This will be my first time posting so I hope I'm welcome, and thanks in advance for any advice you offer.
Recently I was looking into the computer/networking field and I was quite curious and amazed to see what can be achieved.
As I was researching into NAS builds and router builds, I decided to make a list of parts that I would've deemed suitable enough to run my own setup.
Now this might seem a bit overkill for home use but I think it does well in allowing for expansion in the future.

Is this a setup that would do well in acting as both a router and NAS, or can I only do one of the two?
