Hi! I’m currently running a bunch of docker containers on an old optiplex desktop I got from a local used PC store a year or so ago. Since I’ve been really enjoying this hobby and it’s stuck around, I now want to upgrade my hardware while also downsizing the physical size. I was thinking of getting an Intel NUC but it doesn’t seem like I can fit a 3.5” drive in there and I’m hoping to get a 10Tb HDD for lots of storage. I was wondering if you guys had some suggestions or even just good hardware resources I could look into. Thanks!
You are correct, they are limited to 2.5" drives. They also take m.2 and if i’m not mistaken those go up to 8Tb and 5Tb for 2.5 SSD. Not the ideal single drive solution but if you had a total size goal it looks like you could hit it with an NUC
