I set up myu first trueNAS scale a few weeks ago, and opted to rather go witha CoolerMaster N300 case for the 8+2 3.5" bays (+1 ssd screwed to the bottom of the case under the HDD slots) and two 5.25" slots. As I do not have a rack, it made sense to rather use a "normal"ish pc case for me.
This was a great video, I enjoyed it
I looked into the case in the past. They advertise lower drive slots for larger motherboards.
Thanks

Nice build, but, oof, molex to SATA, lose all your data 😬
@hotrod54chevy ya very true, but it's just my backup, so hopefully, they don't both fail at the same time 🤣
