My home server is a nanopi M4V2 with an NVME drive main drive. The boot 
partition is on an SD card but everything else is on an NVME drive.

It has a fan but never gets hot enough to turn it on. Instead the CNC 
case acts as a large heatsink. In summer the room temperature is over 
30C but there are no thermal problems.

O/S is straight Armbian with no tweaks. This makes it more compatible 
with mainline Debian than Raspberry Pi OS is.

Another advantage of the M4V2 over a Pi 4 is four USB-3 ports. With the 
USB-3 it would be very easy to implement a fast RAID array.
