Advice:
Unless you really do not care about noise, I’d ditch the chassis. The combo is still a pretty good price especially if you use the “OBO” function. This would make a great pfSense build or NAS Killer 4.0 build. Find an ATX case for the motherboard, buy a CPU cooler, PSU, and you’re good to go. The LSI SAS2008 onboard uses physical SATA ports - no expensive SAS cables needed. If you do decide to use SAS drives, you will need some of these.
