I am building a new storage server as my first build was more for proof of
concept and I am now happy enough to build a more long-term unRAID storage
for DVDs and BluRay movies.

I am using a XCase RM420 4U 20 bay case which will give me a potential 38Tb
server when fully populated with 2Tb drives.
Here is a link to some photos of the build:

The system is running the 2nd of 3 cycles of "preclear" on 8
drives. Takes about 24 hours per cycle, but it is supposed to identify any
drive issues before that are put into service.
