Sweet! I will check that out for sure!

hahahaha don't worry I still have some judgement, but still, If it work for you it's better than trying some weird stuff to start with. As for the dimension I already do the math but seem like it will fit, but with minimal clearance. I can't be sure until I try, Which I'm willing to try! just need some time as always...

Thank guys! All Fine the project have been on ice this month. i'm getting back at it. I will follow your lead! I kinda agree with you on that one but they come free with the hotswap cage sooo.... As for update: -I also get an SSD to install plex on it -got 2 noctua fan for exhaust to replace the shitty one from the case -might found an hyper 212 CPU cooler for cheap but i'm still not sure if it will fit Have a nice one!

Hi everyone!, I'm brand new to unraid and I just build a server out of my old gaming pc. I make this topic for later reference for myself and to get any advice from anyone willing to share experience! The main goal for now: -run plex for 2 client -safe storage for all my device -use owncloud The build CPU: FX6300 with stock cooler MOBO: MSI 970a krait edition RAM: 8gb ddr3 1866MHz hyperX GPU: cheapest thing I found online (don't remember) CASE: Rosewill RSV-R4000 DRIVE: -2x seagate ironwolf 8TB -1x old WD 3TB red PSU: 550W EVGA Other: 2x rosewill 4x hotswap cage I want to keep it kinda silent because it sit on my desk, It is already pretty good but I might upgrade the fan and the cpu cooler. So for now and my use I think this is pretty good as I do this mostly cause I find interesting and want to learn some stuff. I got most of the stuff on sale and already had the main part so It cost me under 200CAD for hardware and I almost steal 2brand new 8TB at 265CAD for BOTH (don't even ask how) I buy the unraid ''plus'' key mostly for future proofing. who know? I think I see somewhere It is better to install plex on SSD any recommendation? Do you have any advice on how to properly organize my file for the start? Or any advice at all is welcome! Have a nice one! I still haven't install the second hot swap cage and connect the rear fan when I take those picture...
