Cache is optional and parity is important in case you need to rebuild a drive. Yes for a real server it only making sense with need min. 1 parity drive (2nd. parity drive is optional if 2 drives failing at the same time) and 2 data drives.

I have tested it ages ago: a Lenovo laptop with Intel Atom CPU and one HDD and it was booting just fine. This was back with unRAID 4.x so you might just test it: if you boot from the USB flash drive and if you are able to assign that one HDD you are good to go. The drive will be XFS formatted and you can start to enable the Docker system.

I can help you further if you have reached that stage.
