If instead of building I opt to go with the TrueNAS Mini XL+ I was wondering how accessible the hardware is? For instance, does the power supply use standard connectors? In another branded NAS we had a PSU failure, and the PSU was non-standard so we couldn't just hang an ATX supply off the open case to get it running again.
This is one reason I am considering building-- because we can use commodity hardware, and easily and cheaply keep spare parts around.
I have heard about drive temperature issue with some of the Mini hardware. Are the fans easily up gradable to something that moves more air? Will this be an issue with 8 rust drives in a TrueNAS Mini XL+ ?
Thanks in advance.
