The Black Dwarf reminds me of those old 3.5-inch floppy cases from the ’90s. Except it uses eight 2TB hard drives. 16 terabytes. RAID 5. 266MB-per-second reading. 88MB-per-second writing. All custom-made. Good. God.
The homemade NAS – perfect for editing massive video files or copying the whole internet – was created by Will Urbina. I like it more than hot dogs with jam and lemonade. [Will U. Design—Thanks Clint!]

Anyone who thinks he is actually using the real drives during the manufacturing process is simply an idiot.
