RE: Serious Mini Server / NAS Case
Wow. Initially I thought this was cool, but seeing the details in the blog... Wow
Awesome job and now I'm realizing that my 7 bay Thecus is 10 or 11 years old now (5 or for 7 WD green drives are still original too!)
I have looked at replacing it a few times, but it sits partially between floor joists which drastically limit my replacement options. Can't wait to see the final details (e.g. outer dimensions) and how you''ll distribute/license it (e.g. if it doesn't fit the space, can I modify it myself). I have a feeling that the way the door opens will make it not work for me as is.
One thing that would be really nice is built in support for installing filters to help control dust. Any time I've looked at non-datacenter storage solutions I've always been surprised they don't think of that.
Really nice work though.
