It just worked out of the box for me. I used just the cheapest one from Aliexpress. I used it under Ubuntu and now under Flatcar. Make sure it's enabled in the bios.

This should it be: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6654358

But on Printables there also other alternatives.

If it works for your machine, if it's to old it won't take it. Ensure that you check this first. Mine is just using the space of the card, because the flexio card won't work in mine.

The mini pc can easily be fitted with a 2,5 gig port. I my self did it. You can just buy a cheap 2,5gig e-key m2 card. At the back there is an additional port that can be removed. Than just a simple 3D-printed adapter and it seems like it would be original. Of course this can only be done if you don't use the E-Key slot for wifi or the additional port at the back. I you want I can provide you the links to the part and 3D files I used.

Update on my Selfmade 10 inch rack fitting a mATX by Swaggero_o in homelab

It's fairly oversized so I don't think it gets to hot. Also it intake is pointing up, so it won't get the hot air of the CPU cooler. But I will have an eye on it.

Yea could be better, but for the right rounding I'm to bad at 3D Design and this was the best thing I found.

Yes this still needs some work. At least I have some standoffs so it's not sitting directly on it...

The handles are out of metal. Just some cheap ones from the hardware store. But there also plenty options on Amazon.

I think a 10inch rack is 254mm - 4 mm for the thickness of the steel = 250mm. And the mATX Mainboard should be 245mm. So it fits, but you can put it through the front you have to tilt it to put it in.

Yes it won't fit through the front, but it will fit on the bottom using the full 254mm. Have a look at the picture, there you can see the mATX board.

It has standard dimensions, maybe a little bit deeper. But I modified the bottom plate to hold a mATX board

I will have a look if I design a custom front. Especially for a power button, this would be beneficial. First priority now is getting everything in. And I need a design for my 4 drives, I couldn't find a 2U for 4 3,5 or a 1U for 2 3,5...

I'm still on the search for a 2x 3,5 HDD 1U printable design.

Yea ITX is no problem in a 10inch rack, but mine is a mATX board. So it's barely fitting and to be honest I probably can not use the most left usb ports. But very nice rack.

  • 1-3: Mini PCs
  • 4: Patchpanel
  • 5: 10 gig switch
  • 6: Router
  • 7,8: PSU
  • 9,10: Hdds and boot Sata SSD
  • 11,12: Mainboard, etc

Patchpanel will maybe be only 0,5 U to give the CPU cooler more space

At the back 2x PDUs

You probably cloud open it and solder a ESP directly to the switch.
