Case: fine, whatever. You might investigate if you can get away with disabling one or both of the fans.
Mobo: fine, whatever.
CPU: below
RAM: really cheap nowadays, get at least 16GB
Cooler: below
PSU: good
Disks: below

I would save money on all parts possible and focus on getting as many SSDs as your budget allows. They are silent, WAY more dependable, emit much less heat, and much faster.
I think you will hit the NAS transfer rate (1Gb/s?) limit much before you hit any other (cpu/disk/..). I also doubt that a non-stock cpu cooler will help in any way. The stock ones on my last couple intel cpus have been basically silent, and perform fine even with i7-4770 under full load. I doubt a NAS machine will ever see > 10% load with modern CPUs, even with full disk encryption (well, at least with bitlocker, idk what you're going to use).

Don't see why you'd want wifi...as mentioned above the overall throughput of the NAS will easily have the network interface as the limiting factor.
