will be getting WD Red NAS drives any case suggestions, all i can find its ones that are worth as much as a NAS by it self(trying to be cheap :P, as anything i save will be going into storage it self) 960 in in the parts pile again, its not going it. Looking at a Corsair 80+ Gold Full Modular RM550X

Any reason why? i have a free one? ill take your suggestion (the cheaper of the 2 options, lol)

Will be used for mostly File Backup, both media server as well would be nice(run .avi and .mp3 off it) but it wont be its main thing. The video card is just mentioned as a spare part, i don't need to uses it if i don't need it. i don't have a old case sadly. was going to grab like 2 of these expansion card things (https://www.ebay.com.au/i/332624540497?chn=ps) 6 onboard and 8 expanded For a normal pc person ive never touch a server case/pc so im worried about spending money on something ill probly break experimenting on, i know desktops so ill like to stick to what i know. Amount of HHD is too hard to say i dont have a limt, ill put more as i need them (lets just say i have 5 externals atm) tt-0500nl2nk-a looks fairly generic

so i hear everywhere a over the counter NAS pretty much sucks, so i decided to try and build one as people say that is the way to go and better if u have spare parts which i do. Goal 1 Software FreeNAS (free and good so i hear) 2 Case with lots of storage bays 3 Anything else i'm unaware of Spare Parts Sabbertooth z77 i5 3570k 3.4ghz 4x4gb Vengeance Ram(goes with motherboard strix gtx960 4gb stock cpu cooler Thermaltake 500 power supple Thinking about geting a NZXT H440 Case as it boast a large ammount of drive bays Drive Bays https://www.nzxt.com/products/h440-black External 5.25": 0 Internal 3.5": 11 Internal 2.5": 8 Would any of this work?

Looking for a storage solution for hot swap drives like, but using a mix of 2.5 and 3.5 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orico-BSC35-Aluminum-5-10-3-5-inch-Hard-Drive-Protection-Box-Storage-with-Locking-Silver/32703982501.html but cheaper...

any software tool ive found so far has't worked (currently clearing a blank drive for tests lol so i cant try anything atm

Well i filled up 4 flash pens(32gb) so thinking of instead buying more pens ill go to a larger storage cause its cheaper and less chance of them losing them as they already lost one.
