I'm super happy about my NAS - 64TB storage, 2TB L2 cache, 32 GB Arc, silent, 100% Noctua setup in a 2U SilverStone case.

That's a lot of storage! What's the mobo + CPU in there? And how much power does it all draw?

Nice. Is that enough cooling for all the disks?

in my experience, it's all about temperature delta. my garage that gets to 90F? no. datacenter levels of 72F all day every day? maybe. 5400 RPM? 7200RPM?

the only way to tell for sure is to monitor HDD temps with smartutils and dont let those things get too hot.
