  • I built a server a few years ago in a Fractal Design Node (big square box) which has 4 6TB drives in raid 5 for 18TB of storage and a 6 core AMD cpu. It cost around £1200 and half of that was the hard drives.

    It’s been really good, so if you’re looking to build one yourself I’d recommend having a look at the case and the price of drives.

    We’re talking about low level software that makes the hardware usable here, the reason that Raspberry Pi is the king of this market is because they have the software support that allows their hardware to just work. Pine64 relies on the community to do this for each of the boards they release.

    Pine64’s most successful products have been the ones they release as full products with working firmware.
