My unRAID server has 12 data drives, 2 parity drives, and 3 SSD cache pools. Plus dual Xeons on a SuperMicro ATX board.

I currently have the Deep Silence 5 case by Nanoxia. But things are cramped. I’ve filled all the standard drive bays, plus put in a 4-bay 5.25 enclosure. But I still have one of the SSDs just floating around.

What would a better case to put all this stuff in?

        I’m putting this here because I couldn’t find a good summary anywhere else on the Internet:

        There hasn’t been much work on this recently, but a summary of the scholarly work in this field can be found between these sources:

        The 2013 paper unfortunately is stuck behind a paywall, but message me if you would like to read it.

        My suggestion given the work in the field would be to keep temperatures around 30°C if you can because at higher temperatures, you could be reducing the lifespan of your drives.
