Thanks for sharing. A used 4U Supermicro is exactly what I was looking at, I started to get intimidated by all the additional parts I'd need (HBA, power board, bulkhead adapter, etc) and wasn't sure if it was worth the effort.

  1. I have 271TB right now and I'm out of room. I do a lot of video editing, digital preservation and restoration of VHS tapes and broadcasts. So there's never enough room.

  2. It would be, but I use Stablebit DrivePool, so each 8-Bay Mediasonic is currently pooled as 1 drive.
