      65-70°C during Prime 95 max heat torture test.

      One of the disks’ SATA-to-USB controller used to overheat when the disks were side-by-side. Adhering a small heatsink to the controller resolved that but spacing them in this X pattern further decreased their operating temperature to high 40s, low 50s.

    I love the intentional rats nest in the middle. Normally that stuff is kept hidden!

    Minipcs are the best homelab imo, more acceptable to significant others than a loud rack.
