If anyone has, please loop me in on the experience too. They’re always recommended as good NAS servers, as they’re usually cheap and have fine hardware.

I have heard that it’s better to go with a full size one rather than one of those mini/SFFs, as there’s more drive bays, so more potential storage capacity and you can more easily put everything into a decent sized RAID array. But if you don’t mind just having one giant drive, it should be fine. I think full size ones are easier to modify, but that’s just my assumption
