It's a BTX form factor barebones small business SERVER. If you want an office/productivity computer, there are better options. If you want a gaming computer, there are better options. If you want a NAS device, there are better options. If you want an HTPC, there are better options.
This thing also has a lot of legacy ports that Dell has oddly decided are worth including in a server in 2019, like PS/2 ports for the mouse/keyboard and a PCI slot. Wasted real estate IMO.

They both have 4 drive bays, though this server comes with a 1TB disk. I assume this server is more than capable of transcoding and is designed for continuous duty cycle. Is there a benefit to spending more on a NAS?
personally I prefer this server. using zfs you can get all you need for RAID.
obviously you need some linux knowledge to do so.
This server wasn't built for NAS.
Here's a basic baseline to look at. 8-12 bays with drives and cpu/ram/mobo/nic should not exceed 40W an hour. If it exceeded then you failed. I'm talking in terms of idle time, not at peak usage.
