Not that this hasn’t been asked before, but what are your favorite NAS cases on 2023?

I started with an old antec p180 case back 20 years ago.

Currently using a rosewell rsv-l4500 4u.

Really wish I could get my hands on a 45drivres style case like the q30 or something - just without the insane price tag. 😂

    Time is merely a perspective. I’ve been doing this for 20 years.

    Perhaps it is overblown, but one of the reasons I have 8 drives is because I wanted to run raidz2 for the extra redundancy. I’ve had multiple drives die before and so as disk sizes have gone up more redundancy has been important (at least I thought so).

    So when my first ZFS NAS (4 disks) developed hardware failure, I decided to get more serious about it. Hence larger rack device with a proper Xeon with ECC memory and an HBA for 8 disks + 2 SSDs and the old drives that survived as a play space. I’ve also used this server now for 9 years.
