Sorry there aren’t any links in this post but the forum won’t let new users post more than 2. dumb rule. My existing NAS hardware is very old. I would like to migrate my existing pool into an entirely new system and can re-use my case, drives, and power supply: CASE: Fractal Define R5 - fits up …

For a file server-only oriented board look no further than X10SDV-2C-7TP4F . I wish I’d bought it instead of the version I have now. Very low power, 22 SATA ports (of which 2 are SATADOM), etc. You’re really unlikely to outgrow it as a file server.
