Unless you're serving some quite demanding clients, I'd expect 16GB in
an NAS to be a complete waste of money.
IOW it all depends about what kind of NAS you're designing, and with
what kind of connectivity and software.
Most commercial "home NAS" boxes have much less than 16GB of RAM, for
example (e.g. the `Asustor AS5304T` described by pcmag as "best for
power users" for 2020 has 4GB of RAM).
