Hi guys,
I build my frist NAS on the base of Intels G4560-CPU. The reason for this build was that the hdd with the baby pictures of our daughter crashed. After the nuclear fallout that my wife released on me, I got a go to build a local storage. Some my ask, why we didn't put the pictures in a cloud, but we both don't trust this solutions.
The G4560 settels on a Gigabyte GA-B250M-DS3H with two Crucial 4GB DDR4 2400MT/s. The OS is installed on a Transcend MTS600 M.2 SSD with 32GB capacity. The PSU I used, is a be quit! Pure Power 10 ATX with 300W. As storage devices I used four Seagates Ironwolf 2TB-Disks now running as a raid 5. All of components I threw in a Phenom M Nivdia Black Edition Micro-ATX Case of BitFenix. It's a small case and looks really great on my desk, but you do not want to see the inside of it. There is not enough spcae to think about cable managemt. At the moment I think, if I should buy Fractal Designs Node 804-Case. There is more space and a better ventilation I think.
On the pictures I attached to this post, you are looking from the top to the bottem of the machine. You can see 2 disks at the bottem and the other tow disks are srewed on the top of the picture.
Kind regards
