Many thanks for your reply, Ed, I really appreciate it!
They are some great suggestions, but I think my choice of case might ne limiting my ability to use the suggested motherboards and PSU? The motherboards looks great, but are mATX - the Jonsbo N3 page says it takes ITX. Same for the PSU; I would have wanted an ATX one, but the Jonsbo site says PSU support is for SFX≤105mm.
Great to know about the CPU - I'll look into that!
Again, I really appreciate your feedback, and you've definitely given me more confidence I'm on the right track to my first NAS server! :-D
