I used a hdd bay similar to this in my last homebrew NAS build. It will give you 4 drives for 3 3.5" drive slots in a case. And the bays are hot-swappable.
As everyone else has stated, Ryzen is overkill. The Synology NAS I bought has an Intel Atom in it and it works perfectly. Only thing I did was add more ram and a 10gb fiber card. Of course you can just add in a Nic and team the ports to get better throughput.
