Other Small Form Factor mITX NAS

[Bruman]

Hey All

I currently have an ITX mobo, cpu and memory. I bought this second hand for cheap since I wanted to build a NAS to house the 4TB hard drives I bought but could never use (my normal Z68 mobo is too old for UEFI, and BIOS only supports drives up to 2TB) but would love to have a case that is as small as possible. Anyone know of a case out there that houses at least 4 3.5" drives and an ITX mobo? I have found this and it looks pretty small and compact, but was wondering if there was something out that that is smaller, maybe taller and thinner.

NCASE M1 will hold up to 5 3.5 drives if you order an extra drive bracket. It will also hold 2 or 3 2.5 drives with the 5 3.5 drives in place.

In fact, without using a GPU, you might be able to double stack or more the bottom drives and make more space.

There is the U-NAS NSC-400 as well.

While not the smallest possible, a good consumer option is the Fractal Node 304, which holds up to 6 hard drives in a small package.
