Mini-ITX 2U Homelab

by Alejandro Alvarado Posted on: 6/23/2023

Build Description

I've always wanted to have a NAS and a plex server and I deciced to go the DIY route. This will be my first foray into both and I also plan on using it as a playground to learn about virtual machines and more. The current plan is to install unraid and add plex as an app then in the future I'll mess with things such as a minecraft server or home camera system.

The chassis is rack mountable and is made by a company called myelectronics based in europe.

Favorite Feature

I have a very short depth 6U rack that I keep my home network stuff and this case fits so perfectly inside.
