12 Bay/ 6 Bay ITX NAS

12 Bay NAS using this new Motherboard I found in Aliexpress, still in modeling stages, and will be updated once parts arrived.

Target/ Design Goals:

• Not too big but can accommodate about 12 Drive (To replace my Synology 5-bay)
• Hot-Swap HDD (SATA + Power Cable will be glued to the HDD slots, so HDD can just slides in)

Part List:

• Motherboard: N5095 with 12 SATA Port
• SATA Cable: 12x SATA and Power Cable Combined
• PSU: Any Flex ATX, you will also need more SATA power cable as normally Flex ATX PSU only have like 2 SATA Power
• Fan: 2x Slim 12cm FAN + FanGuards
• Various m3 Brass Insert, m3 Screws and Glue Gun

Feedback appreciated. This Printed fine, but was ultimately too big for my desk, so I designed a smaller 6 Bay model
