Been planning to migrate from my Supermicro monolith server for a while and finally finished the migration. Red thing is opnsense on an APU engine, Lenovos run a proxmox cluster, below is a mini PC with attached JBOD running TrueNAS.

Next step is to get another shelf for my Raspi and openDTU.

    It’s this MB/CPU: https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/J5005-ITX/index.asp#Specification

    The JBOD has SATA connectors for each SSD, it’s 3 1,8TB SSDs in ZFS mirror. I tested write speed but since it’s all Gbit LAN that’s the bottleneck for r/w and I didn’t bother any further with theoretical r/w. Currently there’s not much writing except for daily backup tasks from the Proxmox Nodes.

    I’ve already had the JBOD and was basically just looking for something small and low power to run it. I’m not sure what the “normal” tower setup would be, I didn’t find too much for 10" racks. It currently being a mini PC with the case being half open and not properly fixed in the rack is certainly not ideal, I found some Mini ITX rackmount STLs, but the power supply needs some extra space etc.
