Is an Intel N100 or N150 a better value than a Raspberry Pi?

Slightly tangential, does anyone know of a decent n100/150 board that's not super expensive, has enough pcie for at least 2 ssds, and is available ideally in India or the EU?

The vast majority of mini PC's with these processors don't have pcie. The lattepanda mu is the closest product I've found so far.

All I want to do is run a server with 2 disks, but it seems weirdly tough. (Ideally a small physical footprint server but I can compromise on that a bit.)

N150 only supports 9 PCIe lanes.

That's more than sufficient for me fortunately, I only need a few lanes of pcie. This isn't a plex server with 1gps transcode, it's probably closer to 50 or 100mbps as it'll only be documents and photos, not videos.
