If you are considering a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device then performance of Thunderbolt is moot as you can already have a faster connection via Firewire or e-SATA. NAS is convenient & has reasonable performance but is not the high performance option.

Sorry to sound dumb but why is NAS not that high performance, I thought over ethernet it would be quick. Would it not be quick enough for editing?
