Hello, I am new here and want to share my Expiriences to Build my Own TrueNAS System with the use off Shuttle SW580R8 Barebone and the QNAP TL-D800S 8 Bay Enclousure.

Shuttle SW580R8 Hardware used:
64GB Kingston FURY Beast DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16 Dual Kit
(Max 128GB Possible)
Intel Core i5 11600K 6x 3.90GHz So.1200
Noctua NH-U9S CPU-Cooler (Enclousure Mod needed!!!)
Mellanox ConnectX-4 Dual Port 25GB Card (Refurbished)

4x 1TB Samsung EVO 860 SSD (2x Mirror as Cache read pool)

QNAP TL-D800S Hardware:
8x 6TB Seagate Iron Wulf Drives

To fit all into the SW580R8 some Enclousure Mods was needed, special for the Noctua Cooler. Will not fit into it without Mod!

Enclousure Mod:
On the PSU Side you need to remoove the Aluminium Metall Piece under the PSU.

4 Holes needed under the CPU (may be it would work also without them but it is realy tight) between Board and Case

Also Removed a bit Metall on the Back side for the Ventilation:

Still to do:
How to screw the 4 SATA SSD on Top.
Hoe to screw the Boot M.2 NVME to Enclousure :wink:

The actual TrueNAS Scale Stable Version i can nstall but it cant boot
I get the Massage the RAM Drive created and nothing happen after that it freezes :frowning:

TrueNAS Core works fine so far on the M.2 NVME with 2230 E to 2280 Adapter and TruNAS Core show me all 3 NVME Drives after boot!

Nice weekend guys


You can also use an Intel Xeon and ECC Ram but for private use was to expensive for me :wink:

SSD Cage first aproach done.




Second Cage for the third NVME Drive


Now its ready to run with QNAP TL-D800S Enclousure

I am not an lucky guy after running for 2 Days i shut down the NAS and next day i am not able to shut it again on!!!

Changed the PSU no difference. No Relais switching in the PSU anymore only the blue Light on the Front goes on but no Fan or anything else will go on!!!

I guess something was Killed on the Board!!!

Damm.

Ordered me an Supermicro Board now (Micro-ATX Supermicro X12SCZ-F Intel W480E) that works with the RAM and CPU and an new Enclousure the Jonsbo C6 and an be quiet! SFX Power 450Watt PSU let see how long this will work LOL :frowning:

Never ever i buy any Shuttle stuff again!!!

Since 1992 i build my own Computer and that time the first time Hardware burned after some day running!
