Now with Black Friday coming around the corner and hopefully some nice deals will pop up. I wanted to upgrade my old setup with something new. When lurking this reddit i saw alot of people going the way by using a NUC for all there server related solutions. So i'm looking for some advice to go down the road of using an NUC for plex and other media related apps as server.

Also which DAS would all of you recommend. Right now i had the following hardware on the eye.

SABRENT 10 Bay USB C SSD HDD 3.5 Inch Docking Station, Hard Drive Enclosure, USB 3.2 Gen2 Offline Cloning Station with Two 120 mm Fans for Additional Cooling + Power Supply, Tool-free (DS-UCTB)
Intel NUC 13 Pro Kit RNUC13ANHI50002
Kingston DDR4 SODIMM Fury Impact 2x16GB 3200
Samsung 990 PRO 2TB M.2 SSD

I was thinking of the following NUC because of the better airflow, or is it no use to concern about heat or performance issues.
