I love that scavenged rack + the Ansible set up, subscribed! :)
Outstanding! I must wait for my Social Security check to be deposited on the 18th to order the items. 😂 To be honest, I need this ‘cause I do not have the space for a full rack (at this time), and most of my “home lab” comprises Raspberry Pis and a few mini PCs. So, that rack size is perfect. Thanks again, bro, you nailed it. Stay safe 🙏.

yes, it is fit for “HOME LAB" or SBC's cluster, Rack mate T1 is fit for putting it on desktop.
Yeah, Im thinking this is my next IT adventure! Great video, love the cooperation between channels.
I really like this set up , neat clean . And love the use of the Pi in a network setup.
Drily tells his audience to google power bottoms... you sir are an evil genius in entertainment.
Found this channel recently. I'm loving the content.
This is a very cool system. Thanks for sharing your build. 👍
That is the coolest thing I've ever seen. What I would do with one of those is show it to all my friends and have them bask in my glory.

That 10" rack kills me LOL We have a running joke where I work about "standard" 19 inch racks that never seem to fit anything that is a standard 19" form factor.
You were in for a winner at the GPU graphics poking out, hands down! 😂😂
Would love to see a software tour! This is so cool!!!
I love this setup ♥
Dude, you're just hilarious 😂 Thanks for the laughs.
Space is my enemy and this mini rack would be awesome. I can downsize my desktop PC, pi cluster, and NAS. Thanks for the ideas.
a rack to go into your rack. looks pretty sweet. may have to do my own one when I finish my current 25u build.

Fun build. Way to do cool shit without getting overly serious.

I may have the space, but that doesn't mean I have the money 😂
It's actually very simple to drill, and tap your own mounting points on metal like that. If it was me, I would feel way more comfortable with that than some sticky tac.
"Checkmate" lol, love it
You might be able to save some space if you rotate the Raspberry Pi's. This way, you then have a whole entire bay completely cleared out.
This thing is so sick!!!
Nice build.
Been dying to build a mini rack. BUT, the only thing that stops my build. Is the lack of a disk shelf. How awesome would it be if you can squeeze in a disk shelf link it up to the mini itx board and you're off to the races! A disk shelf for six 3.5" drives 🤤It would be like squeezing a Jonsbo N3 case into the rack.

4" 😂 that's a Pico rack
Bonus points If this slides into a rack on rails and everything connects with a single power and 10g cable
A small rack is just fun sized, right? No wait, that only works with chocolate bars. A big rack is fun sized, a small rack is fun, just not as much. 😉
10" racks are common run Europe, mainly due to racking low powered devices as electricity is expensive. I have had one for the past 9 years they are great to keep everything uncluttered. Glad to see it is catching on in North America. @raidowl there is a 10" mini its case from myelectronics that fits your 1080.
Good shit man, really nice.
Outstanding!
Very nice setup. 100W isn't bad
It's finally available in Germany as well (don't know how long it's been available for, tbh) and I'm gonna shell out and buy at least one of them. Maybe a second one for my mom and her setup, too. I just love this small thing for small builds and stuff. Good way of starting out your homelab! Throw in some 3D Printing, and I guess you can create really, really cool stuff with it!
AWESOME! Unfortunately it would cost a gazillion thousand Brazillian Reais to build it here.😅
19 and 4 lol. Great vid
🤔Tim got the backwards cap. He can cut through the air and it keeps him planted like a wing. B went full Buddha though with the Mr. Clean hairdo. That jawn aerodynamic AF. This is gonna be a fierce battle!!!
I'm looking forward to more content on this set up. I actually got a 10" rack a couple of years ago (after seeing a video on it by @NovaspiritTech some three years ago) and it has been sitting my storage just waiting for me to justify buying it . . . This just might get me going on the thing!
Definitely gonna grab that USB Dock.
Hello there, Mr. Owl. I have been researching NAS builds and came across this. Why would a photographer and video maker need a server like this. Thanks for the video. Hopefully you are enjoying your server.
I think this is awesome. I got more mini pc clusters rather than PI 😃

Would love to build one myself. I would cluster up some mini PCs, probably four BeeLink EQ12. Top mount a fanless firewall appliance as a router. Similar network switch, maybe something managed. A digiconnect USB over IP hub. A Minisform BD770i build serving namely as the multi-media rig. I know that's overkill, but I want it. Finally, add in a serious NAS solution... not sure if that's another device or something I already mentioned.
RaidOwl has that Dave Attell delivery.
A word of caution on that PSU. I had the similar Apevia ITX-AP300W PSU, and it released the magic smoke. I don't recall how long it lasted before it did that, but it definitely wasn't long enough, and definitely should not have been overwhelmed by the system it was running.
My wallet says i dont have the money for this
4… you lucky guy.
Do a full software turtorial of the rack.
honestly ive been considering setting up some form of home server so i love the idea of this! youtube is definitely trying to push me to committing. im curious if you could just use the mini itx as your daily driver tower while running proxmox instead of parsec. i would assume so since you can use the 10" monitor to game, just replace it with larger monitors
Yes, i would definitely have this years ago if could. Now i have a full rack but got for 40 dollars at the time. I have too many servers i need to sell no longer need.
