What do you have, what do you recommend, and why?

Asking as I’ve got a lot of spare components lying around that I’m planning on turning into a NAS. If it doesn’t work out I’ll buy a pre-built enclosure and reuse the drives.

    I’ve built multiple DIY NAS solutions, from a simple ARM NanoPi M4V2 in a wood enclosure to a high performance systems for small companies with TrueNAS Scale. Frankly I don’t see much reason to go with a pre-build if you’ve the time and skills.
