Outstanding features and quality ! Bought this to protect for my new $4000 pellet stove. During the 1st week contractors were working on my house and every time the table saw or compressor came on the UPS stepped up and prevented the brown out due to that branch's load. The stove didn't even hiccup.
-Very well built -comes with 8 fans -comes with all screws and hardware -can be easily modified for mining rig
cost efficient server that performs. x86 is almost at its scaling limit with 5nm process unmatched 5ghz per core performance optimal for running cryptocurrency validators great ipmi
- IPMI "just works". Updating BIOS + BMC firmware over IPMI web browser feels like I'm actually in the future. - IPMI event logging is clean. I've noticed one of my 8 RDIMMs is throwing a single correctable error about twice a month, so I have a task list to go in and re-seat/clean/replace it if necessary. Thanks, IPMI logging! - Great supporting list of CPU models/generations. I went with a used Milan I got for a bargain off Eb@y.
Ease of setup Available capabilities

I'm not going to write a pros/cons, just the facts in this category. This is a VERY bare-bones 4U case. There are no reward points here for style. There are no removable/hot-swap trays, there is an old commitment to 5.25" bays you can convert with an IcyDock or similar; the tray layout does not provide for any of the newer methods for routing or cable management, and the spacing is such that you are not going to put any deep mount device in here. While there are numerous 3.5" bays, you really will want to use less than 1/2 of them for both heat and performance concerns. The case, however, is one of the cheaper 4U cases, and if you are looking for a baseline for a simple purpose, like a virtualization header, a Windows server, a firewall or similar, this case is certainly a decent choice. I have had no problems using this as a case for my firewall and VPN software layouts, as well as Windows servers in the past, due to pass-through problems of specific USB security keys that did not like VMWare or XCP's pass-through I was forced to keep on their own.
-It is all pros
- Great for the price - USB 2 and 3 front headers - 5.25" device slot, very useful to add hot swappable drives
1st one was an RMA, 2nd Unit works perfectly! User serviceable battery +++ great price

Small and easily concealed. APC is a trusted brand in UPS makers.
Lots of space, well ventilated, light but sturdy.
This ensures my network is always on in case there's a power outage. It helped me survive 3 power outages where I would I have needed for working at home.
works great and lasts forever this is my 4th in the house and when the batteries go bad it's a simple run to the battery store to get anotherand replacement is a breeze
- Inexpensive, compared to other solutions - Includes the hardware for mounting drives and board
The only server motherboard that allows you to use a consumer grade Zen 4 CPU. For workload that is not memory bound, a 16-core Ryzen 7950X will outrun any 16-core EPYC, at half the price or less.
