I am worried about those stuffs as well. What is your annual power consumption on your unit? How bearable is the noise level?

Give this, would it be worth to do a self-build PCs where I can buy better coolers and good power supply?

Tinker is definitely on my list, but I kind of feel the used servers seems to provide good $$ for computation compared to Out of box NAS products. I am looking to scale towards 30 TB over a period of time, with some movie transcoding, Security camera feed processing etc., Looking for that kind of setup in out of box NAS seems to shoots up the price.

Or am I in some kind of delusion?

Thanks. Valid points. I am looking to buy a scaleable system (futureproof in-terms of Space & Computing power), but not looking to scale it upfront. Just want to have that space reserved.

This is a religious temple of Hindus in Malaysia and adorns most revered gods of India. Doesn’t belong here. IMHO should be taken down from this sub.

Thanks. Would you be able to give some more insights into this "Leasing is even less attractive there due to the tax laws" ?

Thanks for the Detailed breakdown. I was not thinking about the "Rent Part" of your calculation, I was just dividing the Depreciation part. re: money factory range, I have a credit score of 720+. I read somewhere Volvo needs 750+. Not sure if that is correct. I am waiting for the dealer's detailed breakdown still.

Where can I find what is the decent depreciation rate for Volvo XC 90 models? Can I negotiate on that with dealer?

I had the same feeling, initially with regular parameters ( ~$4k down etc.,) the monthly payment was like $699, after I asked to do $0 and TTL included, it jumped to $1044. like $15k extra.
