Getting in a pickle over hardware (feddit.uk)

I'm moderately tech savvy, a little experience with most OS and comfortable with hardware. I've got some basic things working in Docker. I want to start self hosting my photo backup, Bitwarden, Jellyfish, Sonarr and Radarr, Pi hole, Home Assistant and replace Dropbox. But the more I dive into the hardware and setup the more muddled I'm finding myself.

I'm very concerned about power draw so the lower the consumption the better. I do want some parity, though I'm willing to I introduce that once it's set up. I'm not particularly concerned with transcoding but I guess it'd be a nice bonus.

Is a QNAP alone valid? Or perhaps I'm better off with a Pi and my huge GDrive while I learn? Or a NUC with better transcoding capability? I want to access my data internally, stream content to a Chromecast with Google TV.

My instinct is both a NUC and a separate NAS but I'e love it if anyone has some insight.

Thanks!
