hashref Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Posting my working ITX build in case anyone was looking in to building one similar. I've had no problems with the ASRock Z87E-ITX. I haven't bothered trying to use the wireless nic. NORCO ITX-S4 Black Server Case Athena AP-MFATX40P8 400W PSU ASRock Z87E-ITX i3-4360 Haswell Rosewill RCX-Z775-LP (Low Profile) G.SKILL AEGIS 8GB (no raised heat sinks!) 4 4TB WD Reds 500gb Samsung 840 EVO The Norco S4 is a great little case though it was no easy task getting the board mounted which involved partially dismantling the drive cage from the rear. I've been using it as Plex server without any hiccups so far. Quote Link to comment
rmciii Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 i also built the Norco case with ASRock H97M-ITX with onboard wireless but do not know how to activate the wireless. Any luck with yours? Quote Link to comment

I don't believe UnRAID supports wireless cards. I'm using the Z87E-ITX board as well and it's been very solid. I tossed the wireless card into an old laptop and use the mini PCIe for a dual sata card. Quote Link to comment

No extra settings or issues to get the additional drives up and running? Quote Link to comment

I only had a half mini PCIe slot to play with, so I made sure I found one of the shorter cards. Left my single PCIe available for a graphics card I could passthrough in a VM. Quote Link to comment
