HP ProLiant MicroServer N40L rackable ?

Help

Hello

I have a old n40l with 5 drive ( 5x4to ) running unraid since very long time, in my new house i'm starting my homelab in a nice rack but the square of the n40l is a very bad fit for that; do anyone know if there is nice 2u rackable chassis that allow the n40l motherboard and his 5 disks ?

Unlikely, the Microserver NxxL form factor is unique to that series.

Yeah get a 2u chassis and build around it...

I expect that the N40L would actually fit in a 1U, but it’s proprietary so regardless you’re just going to need to fudge it in to a box..
