  • And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.

    Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120

    That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.

    There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it



  • I would interpret that as a

    “Leave me alone I’m not interested”

    Maybe it’s just how I view things, but you realize every relationship ends in either break up or marriage? Like I’m engaged and 95% of my time with my partner is just casual hanging out. I would be distraught if I could only see them when were on a date.

    You need to have a better conversation with him.











  • Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

    I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3




  • Literally had a show about it

    Which was quote meta considering he literally had a show about it.

    Man I wonder what Tim Allen’s been up to. I wonder if he did another show literally about performing masculinity where he literally has a show about performing masculinity in the show.

    Man that’d be wild.
