And the UNAS has a “with PSU” option
I see what you did there… the meme is @winnielinnie ’s
In the 40L category this one is actually getting good reviews.
8-bay SAS-12G / SATA-6G hot-swappable high performance Micro-ATX NAS chassis
39.64L
CS382, supports big GPU and Radiators too.
And has a 5.25” meaning you can add 4 2.5” removable bays and has an optical slot too!
I made a thread for this already
I like the Node. You can get 8 drives in there without a sweat, +2 more if you mount on the bottom. Its not “hot swappable” although the side comes off pretty easy for easy access to any problematic drives. Its right at 40L, but is spacous on the inside and can be combined with most MB’s / GPUS easy enough. Its around $130 shipped but can be had for sale. Seen a TON of HT builds with this because it has a nice WAF which admittedly is not that important for servers. That said, I am certain Stux, Dan and Etorix have servers in their master bedrooms, right?
Living room.
And WAF was why the Node 304
Likewise.
Bedroom? No way!
But the backup server is in the nearby dressing room. The main server is in the living… but it’s flash only, so no spinning noise.
My Node 804 was retired and its drives moved to a PC-Q26B, which is distinctly quieter. The 804 has good cooling, but the top mesh means that drive noise goes straight out of the case
I like these cases.
But there is something charming about the mad scientist rats nest home server get up.
That looks like you’ve had Uncle Fester’s ferrets build the thing.
Its not actually mine, saw it somewhere. I just thought the picture was hilarious. It probably exists, but there needs to be some kind of 5v-12v squid thing that can feed a lof the low amp peripherals in computer setups all at once. The wall warts are ALWAYS the biggest PITA to make your wires look clean.
