Serves mainly as a NAS, but also as the host for Plex, HomeAssistant and some other stuff.
Fun! I used the exact same chassis for my NAS. Thanks for sharing!
I searched far and wide for the perfect chassis. Silverstone make some awesome stuff.
Yeah, the quality is really good. It’s also not cheap. I bought this case mostly because it’s rather shallow and did fit into my previous server rack.
I’m now at a point where I should buy another drive cage but I’m a bit hesitant to spend 150€ for it. Well…
Edit: Any reason you decided to go with a non-server mainboard without IPMI and ECC support?
My thoughts exactly! I recon that I’ll probably keep the case the longest of all, out of all those a hardware.
That’s awesome. Thanks for posting the pics and assembly.
How much did you pay in total?
I haven’t dared summed it up yet. It’s been purchased over a stretch of time. Guesstimating to around €3000.
Ouch indeed! I’m sure you want to run powerful applications to justify the costs :-)
About half the cost was just the disks 😅
With 5x10TB WD Red, I 100% believe you!
Damn, Red Plus really are the best, so quiet.
I really wished they made them 20+TB (I switched to Exos X20 and was pleasantly surprised with the noise profile … tho my expectations were preset to low).
Awesome, what server chassis is that?
Case: Silverstone RM41 with FS305-12G drive cage
Looks like a Chenbro rm-42000
