Need a power supply. Does anyone know if the Rosewill 2U cases are compatible with a water cooler? I’m doing the home server in a 2U as well so have been looking at options here for cases.
I have a Corsair Professional Series 80 PLUS Gold (AX850) with cables
The case has 2 80 fans at the rear.
It is only built for 4 SATA devices.
I have 2 Seagate Dell enterprise plus ST4000NM0023 4 TB SAS 2 3.5 in Enterprise Drives
I have 2 Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD 1TB
Plan to use the NVME in RAID 1 if possible
I only have 1 M.2 slot so I may use two SSDs for Raid 1

My Drives are not SAS they are these;
I was looking at another server a built awhile back
Seagate EXOS Enterprise 4 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive
updated part list
when considering a 2ru case. consider future use. the case will only take half-height, half lenght cards which could issues down the track if you want to add graphics or HBA cards.
If you won’t think you’ll need them everything should be fine.
Sadly I do not game or edit videos.
That is why I selected CPUs with onboard graphics.
I also have a Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter I225 Series and a QNAP QSW-2104-2S is an unmanageable switch with 2 x 10 GbE SFP+ ports and 4 x 2.5 GbE ports
You just got your last post removed for low effort and you’ve posted the same thing again with no more effort. Are you trying to speedrun getting banned, or what?
No I thought the problem was. They didn’t like the way it looked. I’m just trying to find some Simple answers. I could elaborate for hours if you want to read it
The specifications for both the 2U home server and the general-use PC at home seem to be well thought out and should perform well for their intended purposes. However, there are a few points that could be improved or considered for better performance and longevity.
2U Home Server
CPU Cooler: The Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 Low-Profile Quiet Cooler is a high-quality cooler, but you might want to consider the NH-U14S or NH-D15 for better cooling performance, especially if you plan to overclock your CPU.
RAM: 32GB is more than enough for most server tasks, but if you plan to run heavy virtualization tasks or use Docker, you might want to consider 64GB or even 128GB.
Storage: The build doesn’t include any storage devices. Depending on your needs, you might want to add some SSDs for faster data access, or HDDs for more storage space.
General-use PC
CPU: The Intel Core i3-12100 is a good CPU for general use, but if you plan to do heavy multitasking, gaming, or video editing, you might want to consider a more powerful CPU like the i5 or i7 series.
RAM: 32GB is a good amount of RAM for general use, but if you plan to do heavy multitasking or use memory-intensive applications, you might want to consider 64GB or even 128GB.
Storage: The build doesn’t include any storage devices. Depending on your needs, you might want to add some SSDs for faster data access, or HDDs for more storage space.
CPU Cooler: The Noctua NH-L9i-17xx Low-Profile CPU Cooler LGA1700 (Brown) is a good cooler, but you might want to consider the NH-U14S or NH-D15 for better cooling performance, especially if you plan to overclock your CPU.
In conclusion, while the current build specifications are solid, you might want to consider the above points to better suit your specific needs and improve performance and longevity.

I already have sufficient storage
I alreadt have PSUs
Your server build lacks storage or power supply.
Your general use lacks storage. I would also recommend adjusting to i5/16GB for general use. If you end up gaming then you could have an excuse to bump it to 32GB along with of course a video card.
I have actually spent a great deal of time coming through motherboards and all the things that go along with it to make sure everything is compatible
