If there’s interest I edit the post to include the server specs.
What do you need so much storage for? I get the feeling people tend to massively oversize their HDD array.
it appears to be just 4tb with a redundant backup. That’s not massive.
I count at least 7-8 HDDs on the second picture. If all of them are 4TB, that’s quite massive.
Speaking for myself; backups for a family of computers. I have 4 local PCs and several remote(family) pcs doing weekly backups then all that is offloaded to an external drive array each month. It’s not like it’s critical data but it’s fun to practice.
I personally backup a lot of tv and movies. I prefer using fewer large drives, e.g. 14TB WD Reds
Fractal Node 804? It’s a good choice, I went with it myself too. What are the specs?
Me too!
Is that an Optane 900P I see tucked in there?
What do you use it for? That should be the biggest factor in determining the specs, no?
