I do think that in 2023 1Gbe is starting to feel bit outdated when 2.5(/5/10) Gbe is becoming commodity. Something like NanoPi R5S has 2x2.5Gbe, and a nvme slot, all in nice little low power package. Sure, it doesn't have sata slots that OP wants, but I'd imagine similar ARM/Rockchip devices are available in all sorts of configurations.

This one is x86 architecture, and if you need more speed, there's one 4x PCIe slot available for expansion.

It’s works but that slot is pcie gen 2 if memory serves. Seems to work fine with gen 3 nvme ssds at lower speed though
