If you already found and printed this super bracket (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3126622), you will need this tower :) Needed things: 1. Orange pi PC (https://aliexpress.ru/item/32807985615.html?spm=a2g0v.12010612.8148356.1.7b3a100eoGzF83) 2. Any 2.5" HDD (I use 1Tb) 3. USB-SATA (https://aliexpress.ru/item/32764895291.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.264d33edi3aDOn) 4. 6010 5V cooler (https://aliexpress.ru/item/4000233226859.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.735433ed65UZXk&_ga=2.18028670.653597591.1597160647-1567676923.1578507998) 5. PID control board for cooler (optional): a. NPN Transitor (2222m BC548, etc.) b. 4001-4007 diode c. Resistor d. Dupont or XH2.54 sockets. 6. Wi-Fi adapter (optional). (https://aliexpress.ru/item/4000214954221.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.264d33edqIhdqm&_ga=2.56310636.653597591.1597160647-1567676923.1578507998) If you agree that cooler run always - you can skip PID control section. If you can use LAN cable - you can skip Wi-Fi section. What I've got now: 1. Cooler starts run on 40 degreese (35%) at 55 it will run at 100%. Less noize. Nice. Good heatsink, I hope, will help to minimize cooler usage. 2. Armbian onboard 3. OpenVPN client (needed to connet my network with other office) with autorun and autoreconnect. 4. Samba storage provides Network Drive for Win and Linux Hosts. 5. Transmission server to download torrents. Controlled via transmission-remote frome any device. 6. DLNA server to watch video on smart TV, and other clients (VLC is nice) May be I will add some more services later. Lets check CPU load.
