Ah yeah, that's not bad. I do get that this is a fairly niche idea so paying extra was expected. $400 isn't outside the realm of idea. Thanks! Its the big, $1k+ server case costs that was worrying me.
The problem that I find is that most cases only say they support x drives, but with some additional (official) drive cages can support more, but stuff like PC Part Picker doesn't show that, so hard to search that way.
Did you have something else in mind?
Fair question, difficult to answer.
I bought the Deep Silence around $180. So maybe $250 or so/less? Flexible. Definitely not Storinator prices (though I wish they sold the chassis separate).
Any affordable cases that can hold 14 HDDs and 3 SSDs?
My unRAID server has 12 data drives, 2 parity drives, and 3 SSD cache pools. Plus dual Xeons on a SuperMicro ATX board.
I currently have the Deep Silence 5 case by Nanoxia. But things are cramped. I've filled all the standard drive bays, plus put in a 4-bay 5.25 enclosure. But I still have one of the SSDs just floating around.
What would a better case to put all this stuff in?
I'm a dungeon master and I use it for help world building and its exceptional.
Oh that sounds neat. Can you give some examples of your process and results?
I do like Prowlarr for management of indexers across the *arr apps, but for some reason I prefer the Jackett search much more. I think part of it is the sub-search within the results, or something else about the UI.
Do you have any issues with it crashing?
Poll: What OS do you run Plex on?
Take this survey powered by surveymonkey.com. Create your own surveys for free.

I'm having some issues with my Plex's stability and was curious what the community thinks about their chosen OS and Plex.
(If there's a better site than SurveyMonkey for polls, let me know and I'll re-do it)
Edit: turns out SurveyMonkey can only show me the first 10 responses. I'll re-do this survey soon!
The results for those 10 was 3 Windows, 3 Linux, 2 MacOS, 1 NAS, 1 Proxmox. All stable except my answer.
But feel free to comment below what OS you run on, and whether you find it stable! Thanks!
The game itself is one of my and my wife's favorites. We take the pocket edition on every trip we take.
If the theme isn't ideal, since you're 3d printing it, you could just design your own (something like tinkercad would be easy enough for this). It's just hexes with an icon on top, so that icon could be anything you wanted!
