Most boards that have the 12v input have the SATA Power output for that reason. AsRock (and Supermicro) have boards that do this already, see for example fabio's build in the Pure case from J-Hack. Only PSU is the Meanwell 12v DC which goes straight into the motherboard. Unfortunately, I doubt that would be suitable for a NAS as the 5v power coming from the board probably isn't quite enough to run, say, 8 spinning hard drives (although the motors run 12v).
