I'm an old man,phone support is free, I think I talked to you awhile back on the phone when you bought a RPi, LOL! I think you are all nuts.
this one can't run LMS nor the other server you mentioned, basic RAID level 1 which means as long as one drive doesn't fail you still have your stuff on there. Unplug the NAS, take one drive out the one that failed and throw it away and then plug in a new one and then let the software do the work to replicate and then you have a mirror copy.
I recommended this one, if you need something complicated Abe here can help.
Once you add in the RPi's and LMS you got another whole complicated thing going on, if you add ROON on top of everything else it is even more complicated. I'm just using a Sonos digital out that was modified. As you've heard me rant about that over and over. Sure RPi with picoreplayer is better if it works. And it should.

Used to not be able to find my ass with both hands, now I have to go looking to find my hands.
But yes, that WOULD work as the Mac Mini would still be in the network and I have figured out how to access it from both the casita via keyboard and monitor and the rest of the house through Apple 'Screen Sharing'.
With 3TB of music on a USB 'G' drive, syncing both Audirvana and MinimServer (required for the dCS Bridge to find music) can take forever.
Plus no backup.
Just get a 4TB hard drive similar to what you already got and please make a backup copy of what you have for yourself. It is important. It is better to make a backup than not, NAS might be too complicated.

Western Digital PASSPORT drive which holds everything as well.
Even slower than the 'G' drive.
as long as you got a backup. that's good news if I am understanding correctly as 3TB is a lot. I'm under 1TB with a room full of CDs still left to rip. I feel like a factory worker when I am ripping, that's why I like the lossless streaming services, it saves me some time.
