Network Device maybe? Peripherals are more like keyboards, mice, etc.
Enclosures seem to fit more for things like Dell's blade enclosures where it is a chassis with a power supply and some interconnect/backplane to connect different, interchangeable devices. That is a specific case that was mentioned here:

The original spec for the datacenter features can be found here:
https://github.com/glpi-project/spec/wi … management
Although it mentions storage devices for NAS, SAN, Tape, etc, this doesn't seem like it was implemented as a specific asset type.
Instead, there is this pull request that added the ability to add storage components to network devices for devices like NAS.
