How much did you pay in total?
4ReplyI haven’t dared summed it up yet. It’s been purchased over a stretch of time. Guesstimating to around €3000.
5ReplyOuch indeed! I'm sure you want to run powerful applications to justify the costs :-)

That's awesome. Thanks for posting the pics and assembly.
4ReplyJealous! I gotta upgrade mine soon, the hardware is 12 years old and I’m down to 3TB free.
4ReplyMeanwhile I have less than 3TB total lol
5ReplyHey man, it doesn't matter how much you have, it's never enough!
4ReplyMy trick is setting a monthly saving for this a few years ago. Today me thanks past me.
Also, I started out with 2x 4TB in raid 1 in my previous server. Or really just an unused desktop with a 1TB disk before that.

Fun! I used the exact same chassis for my NAS. Thanks for sharing!
4ReplyI searched far and wide for the perfect chassis. Silverstone make some awesome stuff.
2ReplyYeah, 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?

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).
2ReplyAwesome, what server chassis is that?
1ReplyCase: Silverstone RM41 with FS305-12G drive cage
3ReplyLooks like a Chenbro rm-42000
