Haul of the day:
First thoughts on the Rosewill RSV-L4500U server chassis: the drive bays are FUUUUUCKED. If you’re getting one of these, which is a bargain price btw, just make sure you have all your drives already purchased and ready to install. This is not a hot swappable or easy drive bay to work with. I literally had to take a multitool and punch down some of the metal in some parts.
That being said, everything fits my use case for converting my SFF NAS to a rack mounted server chassis. The mini ITX board fit, I had to finagle with the PSU but she’s in there in place, only thing I have to worry about is slowly replacing these random SSD’s over with 10 TB WD RED PLUS NAS HDD’s
I’m one of those techs who makes friends with the recycling guys whenever my contractors are looking for their write offs, luckily I’ve been able to get some decent recycled inventory and I can finally make use of these old SSD’s laying around
Behold, my stuff’s (what’s left of the ssd inventory):
I had this little SSD drive bay that I had to cut off the end pin to make fit into the HDD bay
With how the economy is, I have no idea when I’ll be able to fill this up with 15 10 TB HDD’s, but that’s why UnraidOS is for the people 🙏🏼
