Yes, but i mean i frequently move one node over network or external 4 drive Cage. This faster than move node from one single drive to another single drive.
And as i say before node bigger than one drive.
And one node on 4 3tib drives faster than on one on 12tib single drive.

Still very early days so only two nodes up and running on my ReadyNAS so far.
Give me a few more months and this could be a lot more interesting

My 22 Nodes. I am in series quest, and i am dont know how to solve it.
I think how to make something that make low noice, take less space, have good cooling and will be secure.

Well congrats!
Maybe a big server rack?
it is about 385 Euro litle bit expencive, also need wife aproovment
But i just made space calculations and it will fit perfectly
With 22 nodes you should gain much more than 385 â¬
Especially with two ISP sockets which you have 
By the way congratulations with growing your family!
i made GE on Stefen-benten, on my 10 old nodes got 1700 eur, planed to increase storage by exchange some 2TB to 8-10 TB HDDs. But securety takes own price.
Thanks
All that could be packed in a single Supermicro 846 chassis. Itâs a 4U rackmount with 24 hotswap 3.5" bays and amazing compatibility. Look for the said supermicro with at least s2011 motherboard, dual socket or not - your choice.
Case looks like this:
You donât need a rack for it, but I recommend that you get at least a small one - a 12U open one will be more than enough for your immediate needs and used racks cost pennies.
Like this:
Stock fans in it are on a louder side, but you can mod it with 120mm fans and add extra in front to cool the drive bays. At this point drives themselves will make more noise than fans.

whirrrrrrrrr ssshhhhhhhâŠ
o shi oshi ooooshiiiâŠ
A bit like that child that pressed the monitor off when her dad (professional car racer) was in a virtual raceâŠ
Instant regret on her face 
Congratz on having a little one!
âŠand the power supply Fans? I guess they still Run with highest rpms.
I found an option at Fantec.

Right, I completely forgot about it. SQ variants of supermicro power supplies are notably quiet. I have PWS-920P-SQ in my server and I never noticed the fan noise.
This is my Node. I saw so big nodes in this post here haha.
My Setup:
- Raspberry Pi3b+
- Fan Case
- 1.7TB WD USB drive
At the moment its not having a UPS, but I think its to expensive for such a small node.

Itâs great to see nodes of all sizes. Yours probably has a better ROI% than most.
Your calendar seems to be a bit behind though, haha.

Of course
I havenât bought any part now for this node, so my only invest is the power it uses.
About the calender, its just used as a notepad haha so doesnât matter

And to think, I was super impressed that you had somehow started mining Storj V3 in 2013âŠ

Its not called mining, as income is not straight resource (those that you allocated) aligned! The closest definition would be farming
