Make sure you don't have SMR drives, if they are spinning drives. CMR drives are the I ly ones that should be used in a NAS, especially with ZFS. https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2022/05/08/zfs-on-smr-drives/
From the article it looks like zfs is the perfect file system for smr drives as it would try to cache random writes
Possibly, with tuning. Op would just have to be careful about reslivering. In my experience SMR drives really slow down when the CMR buffer is full.
It's an SSD, that's what worries me the most
