It's alright, but far from ideal in the current meta. The terran world can't use soil nanites, the barren and volcanic ones are terribly high hazard.
What you want is essentially:
1) Low hazard habitable with food and no volatiles/transplutonics for your farming, light industry and commerce.
2) 150% hazard barren with no atmosphere for fuel and ship production, and refining. If it's hot, higher hazard is fine, stick a military base here.
3) Volcanic/toxic with crazy ores for mining with mantle bore. If volcanic, also a military base. Toxic only if it also has organics.
4) Gas giant with exactly +2 volatiles for plasma dynamo.
The closer the system is to this ideal, the better. Yours isn't very close. I'd say keep looking.
