Everything was bought in CAD though I converted it to USD for ease of access.
Well this build has been in progress since about the start of July and I can finally call it complete for now. I built this to mainly just serve as NAS and just to start learn Unraid and Dockers. Currently it stores just old family pictures and videos that used to sit on a plethora of hard drives around the house. Looking to branch out into plex and eventually build a separate hardware transcoding server.
Thanks to @JDM_WAAAT @Mthrboard @ALANMAN @seanho for helping me out whenever I asked questions on the discord.
