Do you know some models of cases for NAS style systems, for a mini-ITX mobo and 4 HDD?
I need the most compact form factor, not PC towers with lots of bays, like a Synology form factor.
I searched in all local stores and can’t find any.
Have you looked at Raspberry Pi 5 with a SATA hat ?
I have the mobo, AsRock N100-mITX. I just need a compact case for it, that can accomodate at least 2 HDD and at max 4 HDD.
I don’t see where to put 2 big drives.

There are many on Ali Express that will fit your needs as well
I know about Ali, never bought from it anything, and I’m not eger to start now.
I found nice options from Fractal Design too. Jonsbo are double the price of Fractal.
I like the UPS? What Maker/Model is it? 
I see only the Huawei FTTH router, and I believe you can’t set port forward on it, so it must be in bridge mode. What’s the other router?
Edit: Ah, I know what that is; it’s a power supply used especialy for video surveillance systems.
Here you go
Maybe the BIGGEST pi STORJ node ever?

So far yes.
Please make sure the ventilation has an outlet too. Your rig inside the plastic box might circulate warm air instead of fresh air.

Did someone said “wifi”? Auch… that’s bad for storagenodes.
And that pcie wireband has no shielding.

Exactly- time will tell I’m hoping it will turn out ok, if not I can always limit a few of the disks
Thanks, I am monitoring the drives and the hottest is currently 43C after running a full day.
