Hard to guess at for any given situation, but a few pluses that come to mind depending on the drive arrangement would be taking out any network latency issues between a client and the nas. Or if you have a VM using the nas as its operational drive it takes out the 'oops, lost the link and my OS drive went away' mid run factor. Keep all your container/vm traffic internal and have that single VM sync back to a bare metal... Might have to consider some ideas on that front myself now that I think of it.
