    Hunt for small NAS chassis with 2x3,5" (max. 21cm height)

    Some update on this. I found there's a retailer in UK for a 4-bay NAS chassis that would match my needs :) They'll have this case back in stock in December: http://www.it-tech-uk.com/mini-itx-pc-cases/28-nsc-400-server-nas-mini-itx-case-storage-4-x-35-hard-drives-.html Does anyone have any...

    Hunt for small NAS chassis with 2x3,5" (max. 21cm height)

    Hello all, I need to find a NAS chassis that can accommodate 2 hot swappable 3.5" HDD (plus 1 SSD somewhere inside). The chassis has to have max 21 cm height because I want to have it inside my TV platform in livingroom. Why, you might ask? Since it's a NAS, it doesn't need to visible or...

    HP Mediasmart Server / Media Vault Generation 1 style cases?

    Hi, I thought to give this a shot I'm currently building a DIY NAS and I got most of the components ready, except Mobo. Before this I was going through different NASes and my eye got caught on the HP Mediasmart Server and Media Vault G1 systems. Mostly cause I really like the style of their...

    Do I even need to buy anything?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll go with the G620(T) at this point. In Finland the price difference varies from 50-70 euros (about 38.5 - 43 dollars). I will need just the basic graphic capabilities on this one cause I could always remotely control it. Yeah I've looked at the DQ67EPB3, only thing it...

    Do I even need to buy anything?

    From what I have gathered, the PSU isn't too quiet and since this _has_ to sit in my living room due to wired connection restrictions, it has to be dead silent. I won't lie, the Proliant Microserver looks very tempting and it is possible to replace the PSU with Pico but still, my current...

    Do I even need to buy anything?

    With the upgrade I mean adding a NIC in free slot. The only thing I'm worried about the Microserver is its noise. Some people have reported clearly audible noise and some have told it is not that noisy. Since this would have to sit in the livingroom, I'm still contemplating between DIY and...

    Do I even need to buy anything?

    Hi GregN and thanks for the reply! I have been eyeing the Supermicro mobo and it surely looks like an excellent choice - except its price and the availability of it here in Finland. So at least now I'll pass that. The OS of my choice will be WHS since I'm not a big Linux geek and I don't...

    Do I even need to buy anything?

    Hello all, A total newbie here so bear with me :) Long story short, my mission is to build a 24/7 torrent + file server + media streamer (nothing more or less will be done on this system) that would be energy efficient and most of all quiet, silent. Now I have been looking for different...
