After weeks of iteration, I finally completed my DIY NAS project!
The goal? Turn off-the-shelf PC components into a fully functional Network Attached Storage system with a fully custom 3D-printed enclosure, all designed using SOLIDWORKS xDesign.

In this final episode, I:
✔️ Solved structural and design issues from the first prototype
✔️ Re-printed key parts (feet, back plate, support brackets)
✔️ Reassembled the full NAS
✔️ Installed TrueNAS as the OS
✔️ Added Jellyfin for media streaming

Every component was designed in the cloud with xDesign, making parametric updates and test iterations really efficient. The case includes features for airflow, structural stability, basic cable routing, and quick maintenance.

If you're into digital fabrication, PC modding, or home server builds — this might inspire your next project.
