Is this a good NAS system?

Hi, I was planning on using unRAID to run an archival server with 1 VM occasionally used. Would this system be enough for that?

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 (I was thinking of using 3600x or 3600, but I don't have a spare 1600 to flash bios)

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition

RAM: Corsair Vengaence LPX 16GB (2x8) 3200Mhz CL16

GPU: GTX 650 Ti (Already Owned)

Motherboard: ASRock B450 Pro4

PSU: Corsair RM650 Fully Modular 80+ Gold

Chassis: Rosewill RSV-R4000

 

Maybe some Noctua highspeed fans (I wont be hearing it much, as it will be in my basement).

 

My needs:
A system that can store approx. 16TB of storage, that is accessed at least one time a day, transfering up to 20gb in one day.

A system that can run a windows 10 VM on 4 cores (While leaving the other 2 cores for unRAID, and storing data)

 

Should I change anything out here?

It should work for what you want to do.  If the move of 20gb is too slow over the network you can always save to a fast usb hard drive to copy the data and use unassigned devices to move it to the server.

 

It is pretty close to what I am running, I have had no real issues.

 

Ryzen 5-1600AE
MSI B450 Pro-VDH mATX  (only 4 SATA Ports)
Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz

Thermaltake Core X2 Micro ATX Case

Corsair CX Series 650 Watt 80 Plus Bronze

2-Crucial MX500 500GB 3D NAND (cache)  (1 removed because of excessive writes, reformatted to xfs, no problems since)
2-Hitachi Ultrastar 7K3000 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB  (parity)
3-WD Blue 1TB PC Hard Drive - 7200 RPM-WD10EZEX (storage)

SAS 9207-8i PCI-E LSI00301

ICY DOCK MB830SP-B

2-Noctua NF-F12 PWM
