There is M.2 on the mobo so I’d probably go with NVMe over SSD.
I second the RAM recommendation. I have 32GB in my Synology and it needed it for all those docker containers and VM’s.
As for the mobo, not thrilling, but could work. If you have to add a PCIe card for more drives, 10G network, or more NVMe, you’ll max out pretty quick with a GPU in there too.
