I’m looking for an enclosure or something to chuck my old hard drives into but either they cost super lots for say 4 drives, or you buy a 40€ junk PC and pile up the drives in the case I feel. No middle ground at all, even old used 2014 NAS for 1 or 2 drives are overpriced IMO where I live.
Nice, what’s the price for the PC?

That model seems to be around $250-$300
Edit, it is $200

€ 200 for the barebones version. Plus about 80 for the RAM and SSD.
fractal node 804 fit my bill. I only have 4 3.5" drives plus 2 nvme, but can squeeze 4 more 3.5" drives if needed.
That is some dope stuff!
I remember another fractal box, small but with lots of hard drive space (4?) it was a bit smaller than yours but hey, can’t have too many drives :-)
