Network Attached Storage Build with Icydock Drive Adapters
I've teamed up with IcyDock today to upgrade my network attached storage build into a single box, while splurging a bit on a new chassis.
With all the content creation and editing we do, a custom DIY NAS build just makes sense. If you want a tutorial about setting up FreeNAS, let me know in the comments!
