What is this?
This is a list of orderable parts with updated feedback from my own build attempts. This is all based off of the Mini Server v3 video from the lovely people at NODE.
NODE-Mini-Server-v3-Parts
In case you are also interested in building the NODE Mini Server v3 but don't know where to start, I've compiled a list of parts. These are things I've actually ordered, so I'll provide updates once they've arrived and I've attempted a build. That being said, I'm new to everything hardware, so I might not have ordered the correct things - proceed at your own risk.
