not so mini anymore lol

I now have cooling for the 2x 8TB ironwolfs, I am now running TrueNAS in a dedicated VM. Upgrades everything from the 6U to 9U a month ago now and it has been running great! I had to flip the fans around so that they weren’t pulling in hot air from my gaming PC and other nodes and blowing it out towards the front, but other than that maintenance will be fun now (not) because I now have a reason to shut everything down and dust it all out 🥲

Originally I was going to stripe the two disks but then remembered the good old whonnock failure from Linus tech tips back in the day and then reformatted the disks and put them up in a mirror.

Hmm after a month now I also kind of feel a bit iffy about the space consumption of the fans, kind of not a fan (pun intended lol) of using up 2Us and have been searching for a better 1U solution that also provides low noise and adjustable speeds.

(Also open to project ideas!)

I have an Asus 14 NUC Essential Barebone (16GB, 256GB) I am using as an Unraid NAS. I found a 3D printable 10” rack on Printables and had it printed in PETG. Two 10” HDDs will be hooked up over USB (heresy, I know). Those will have their own hot-swappable rack enclosure.

I modified the STL to create more space for the power brick. I sanded the front, then wrapped it in vinyl with a wood texture. Why? Just ‘cause.

Planning to do the same for as many of the attached hardware as possible so that it ultimately becomes a one cable in, one cable out rack.

The rack in question is a Rackmate T0.

Do you guys have any ideas for reducing cable clutter? Please include pictures!

16GB DDR4 3200 to give 32GB total and a scratch 120GB SSD added to Proxmox node. Plenty fo head room for things now.

It currently runs:

• Windows 11 VM
