Hi!

I'm creating a project to use Orange Pi 5+ as a NAS server. The main idea is to create a NAS using 5 or 6 2.5inch SSDs running on ZFS as storage. I also intend to use Nextcloud to make this project easy to use.

The plan to do it is:

Hardware:
- Orange Pi 5 Plus 16 GB RAM
- Orange Pi 5 Plus EMMC 256 GB
- WiFi Intel AX210NGW
- Conversion card M.2 NVME to 6x SATA 3
- 5x SSD 2.5inch 2TB
- 2x DC-DC Step-Down module
- 12V 5A power source
- DC Power Jack (compatible with your power source)
- SATA power 1 to 5 extension
- 5x SATA data cable
- USB-C power cable
- 3D Printable case
- Some philips screw for Hard Drive

Assembly
1- Print the case.
2- Connect the power jack to both Step-Down inputs and adjust then to have 5V output.
3- Carefully cut the input plug from USB-C power cable and connect it to 5V output from Step-Down
4- Carefully cut the input plug from SATA power extension and connect it on the other Step-Down using 5V (output) and 12V (input).
5- Connect conversion card M.2 NVME to 6x SATA as an NVME disk
6- Connect the EMMC card
7- Connect the WiFi card
8- Screw the Orange Pi 5 Plus board
9- Connect power cables and data cables to your SSDs. Data cables must be connected to M.2 NVME to SATA board.
10- Assembly the box (I made 3D the project to be just fittings. It is only necessary to screw the motherboard).
11- Connect USB-C power cable to Orange Pi 5 Plus power connector.

Software
The idea was:
- Install Ubuntu Server on EMMC
- Configure ZPool with raidz
- Install CasaOs
- Install NextCloud



I'm following the project with SD card and network card + USB wifi dongle.

(When I finish the project, maybe I'll create a video about it)

Update: It's working!
