$27.95 MK735 Mini Server / NAS Chassis
Published 2019-07-01T15:40:27+00:00
Description
PLEASE, DO NOT purchase or attempt this project until you visit 3Dwebe.com and review important specifications and features and you download and print the "MK735 Test Objects" available there at no cost.
MK735 - The first 100% 3D printable Mini Server/NAS chassis in its class that’s truly printable, has been printed, has been assembled, has been beta tested by an international team and even modified by others. Somewhat time consuming, but simple to print and assemble. It is designed to maximize airflow; keeping the system components, disk drives and chassis cool.
Brian Moses (that DIY NAS guy) introduced the MK735 and was a beta test team memeber. His comments, photographs and videos here:
