Trying to find a suitable (not classic style tower) case that can hold 4x 3.5 HDDs now, and have room to grow 4 more HDDs. CPU will be I5-13500 due to the 65W TDP and Intel 770 iGPU for six 4k to 1080p Jellyfin transcodes.
I do network engineering and consulting so this will also house several containers and VMs as well using TrueNAS.
My original intention was to go UGREEN 8800 but I really need this to last 10 years (not accounting for HDD fails)
Appreciate the advice and your content is great!
