I like to tinker with anything tech related.
I’ve gone with Unraid and consumer level hardware (intel i3 12100 and 16gb of standard ddr4 ram) the only “server hardware” I have, is an LSI HBA card that’s in IT mode so I can connect more HDDs.
I’m even used SMR drives in my array, just use a good CMR drive for parity and the biggest SSD you can get for your cache drive and you will be good to go.
Yes.
They is.
Gotta love a good TLA.
Hot to touch, and now its warn to touch.
Its the stock CPU cooler that comes with the newer Intel’s (this is a 12th gen i3)
I tried just the fan on it’s own, but gravity always left it sat at the bottem of my case.
Always, if it’s not, you need more zip ties.
This isn’t a high rpm fan, it’s enough to keep the LSI card cool.
