Is that really an issue with a personal network? How likely would I be to someone breaking into my network? How secure would I have to make it to make this less likely?
Also is having wireless access to my network a good thing? Would I actually use that wireless access for anything at all or would it just be an affectation?
Probably questions I should have asked before buying the kit..

It's probably not a huge issue. Depends how paranoid you are, how sensitive the stuff on your NAS, etc is (confidential work stuff where you may get sued if there's a breach or just a collection of 80s sitcoms), how strong the passwords are to protect them and so on. If you're in a block of flats with 20 flats able to pick up your wi-fi or above a pub or something it may be more of an issue than if you're in a house.
Personally I have them all on the same network so I can do stuff such as use my phone on wifi to control my HTPC which is wired.

You can choose in the edge router settings whether each port on the router is a separate network or whether they're the same network.
Everything on the same network is easiest in terms of wireless devices being able to access your NAS, PC, etc but obviously less secure in that wireless devices can access your NAS, PC, etc
