I have a 256GB SSD; only 180GB is allocated to OSX, and I'm currently using about 100GB on the system drive. I could easily drop 40GB of that if I moved my downloads folder elsewhere. Files are stored on a 1TB drive (which is basically the same idea you'd be using the NAS for).

So short answer, yes 128 is enough to run the system. You might want to look at the 256 if you're planning on keeping it a while, but the 128 would certainly work. You can always get the 128 and upgrade it yourself after.

Between the two choices you posted I'd take the retina i5 in a heartbeat vs the non-retinal i7.
