If all you’re building, and all you’ll ever use this for, is a NAS, the simplest route is TrueNAS.
Personally, I am not a fan of docker for prod, as one bad update or config can bring the entire forest down. Same for LXC.
If you want, plan, or think you might want, to use the baremetal host for other services, proxmox is the way to go. Think VMware, but not run by a greedy evil empire. With your planned hardware, you can run two full services comfortably, or up to 4 mini services. Increase ram to 32gb, and you open up your world to a some really cool possibilities.
Again, it all depends with where you want to go, not just where you are now.
