I've had two of these die on me. Both died in 3 months. What a waste of money to even RMA the first one. Pay a little bit more and get yourself a Crucial MX500

As far as I know, it should function as it should for a NAS. I have a old Crucial 256gb in my NAS and has been fine and TeamGroup makes some pretty solid drives.

Are these better than the $38 pny one?

I used this for a couple weeks and was super not impressed. I've used other cheap drives and this was one of the worst ones. It felt super sluggish, constant delays between programs and apps loading. Also boot up for some reason took a whole minute. And the MX500 took 30 seconds. It was on an old dell latitude.
Sent it back for an MX500 and was all good. Also the Kingston drive is a good cheap budget drive too. Just depends on price and sales
For NAS its not worth it, you won't see any improved performance difference because the bottleneck isn't the drive in NAS, its the LAN speed, interface, software and rams size that make the difference. So any Large compacity HDD is perfectly suited and is made for NAS.
If you set up in RAID, perhaps a SSD would be what your thinking as the Radom access speed and bandwidth come into play
One of the better companies out there not like Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron who have for the past decade been milking the consumer at 1-2TB SSDs for hgih $200+ prices. I have had a couple of these for slightly over a year and no problems so far.

There are several cases where an SSD is useful in a NAS.
The latency is much lower than an HDD. Even though you still need to add the network latency on top of either, that'll make a noticeable difference when working with lots of small files instead of copying or moving a few big ones.
If you run apps or VMs on your NAS, the experience is much smoother with an SSD.
And if you're lucky enough to have 5gbps or 10gbps networking, your HDD can easily become the bottleneck, instead of the network. In non-RAID setups, that can even happen with 2.5gbps, which is becoming standard on many devices.

Another Reason why older tech such as HDD is better than SSD when it come to Data is that if the drive fail, you can still recover data from a HDD. Same can not be said for an SSD... once a SSD failed, its bricked

You really shouldn't depend on being able to recover data from either, but instead should keep good backups. You can -sometimes- recover -some- data from a failed HDD, but not always, and not always completely.

I have been running a PNY SSD on a pi 4 server 24/7 for the last 2-ish years without a hint of an issue.

Recover that data will be...very expensive
