I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

My build under FreeNas:
- ASRock H370M-ITX/ac;
- Intel core I3-8100;
- SNOWMAN MT4 (no fan);
- TANBASSH DDR4 2 x 16GB 2666MHz
- KingSpec M.2 256 GB (cache);
- 6 x 2TB 3.5' HDD WD20efrx;
- PSU Thermaltake Ural 650w.

Pros

- Compact body with the ability to place 6 3.5' HDD; - 3 built-in quiet coolers; - Bays for HDD with rubber vibration dampeners; - Built-in reobas; - Minimalist design; - Built-in filters.

Cons

No more flaws, but design features: - In assemblies with 6 x 3.5' HDD, a very dense layout is obtained. If you need to replace one of the disks, I'm afraid you will have to dismantle all 3 trays. - It is not very convenient to work with a monolithic 3-section housing cover.
