  • I uses these in my home server, solely because you can fit tow of them sideways into a single 3.5" bay if you use right-angle power connectors. I screw them down to a piece of stiff plastic sheet and then use Velcro to hold that down. I run Proxmox and put them in a ZFS mirror. My VMs and containers run off a small NVMe or mirroed SSDs in the replication server.

    That being said, these things work fine for a home file/backup server and don’t use much power. Don’t expect much more out of them and use solid state storage for your hot data.
