Oh I’m always doing something with it, it’s basically my winter hobby haha. I’m currently building a “new” NAS out of an old HP Proliant G2 case (from like 2002) and 7th gen Intel hardware, to replace the current Mac mini/4-bay Sabrent DS-SC4B. Still gonna keep it running OMV, because it’s awesome, but the USB connection between the Mac and drive station is cumbersome.
Just remember the KISS principal: Keep It Simple, Stupid
Keep the NAS as a NAS, and I would honestly trim down everything else into a clustered hypervisor setup (like Proxmox) with dedicated VMs to run each stack. That way if you need to take a machine down for whatever reason, you can migrate its VMs/containers to another machine, with minimal downtime, so you can do whatever it is you need to do with said machine.
Full disclosure: this is what I do. I was in your shoes before.
