The Node show off thread

Hi

Surprised no one started this topic yet as some of you speaking of your trillion TB node in raid ( jealous a bit here haha ) with such passion.

This is my frankenstein PC:
An old broken Lenovo laptop that took a fall and broken the plastic case and LCD. Been in storage for a while and just recommissioned 6month ago for Storj and Plex. Its a 5th gen intel I7, 16gb ram, 3tb wd, 5tb wd my passport. CAREFULLY screwed into a piece of plywood :grin:

As expansion goes, wifi module still can be swapped to USB ( nvme to usb converter ), dvd sata drive to hdd, and have one usb taken by the ethernet as the plastic case was keeping the network cable in place so maybe later i need to solder the cable to the port to free up the usb :rofl:

Pros:
Recycled, 3hours battery backup, cheap to run

Cons
SMR, Filewalker :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:

Unless this is raid0 on floppies, does not count.
