Built a 4.1 back when they were good pricing on ebay. Have had it up and running for a bit, but added another 12TB recently and was a convenient time to clean up the wiring a tad and snap some pictures.
Started out in a N400, but got a great deal on a RSV-L4500 on a local deal from a fellow forum member (Thanks @Blondie ). Moved everything over and haven’t looked back.
Some of the prices could be better, but not bad during COVID times. Price wasn’t as much of a focus as just time and longevity. I opted to make new cables for the ProMiner PSU as the unit comes low on cables and wanted a clean cable run in the case. Buying two helped justify the expense of crimpers, strippers, and wires too, which was considerable 
Overall was a pretty smooth process. Can’t think of getting hung up anywhere along the way. Some of the information out there could use consolidating, but that’s part of the fun of it I guess. Thanks all to those that help to find these deals and post the necessary information to get these old servers back into use. I’m very happy with the outcome and is a much better product compared to a COTS product like a Synology NAS.
