This is a neat little project. Like a sleeper NAS/Media server. I have been looking at some of the mini pc's myself lately to test as a streaming setup. Gonna have to keep up on this project as it is giving me ideas for a "Stream Module" kind of thing. I had been kicking around the idea of using one of the Vevor desktop racks but this looks like it would be a cleaner build.

So much potential!! As far as self-destucting things, we've all been there: I replaced a broken LCD panel in a friend's laptop, had it all end and was securing the bezel, but squeezed too hard.... and cracked it. Had to order another screen but got it fixed. Awesome looking project!

The N54L Gen 7 was a beast in it's day. Officially only supported 8GB but you could get it to work with 16GB of ECC RAM. And of course the Optical slot could house a 5th 3.5" drive. There is an internal USB port you can boot off if that's your thing. You could use an HBA in the PCIe slot and get true RAID. And there is an eSATA connector out back for further expansion. I used to mod the hell out of them. I still have a bunch sitting on a shelf gathering dust. The AMD CPU was the one thing you could not upgrade sadly.

it might be worth trying to replace that resistor (and check around for other crispy critters in the area). some topologies for building power management can "look like" a short to ground when they're not powered, and you might only need to change out a few exploded passives to save the board.

If the second board looks identical in the damaged area, i would desolder the burned smd-piece and measure the value in resistance. Then keep it seperate for later. If the value makes sense i would then buy a new smd-resistor and solder it on the damaged board. If it works great, if not the you still got a working board.

@@HardwareHaven 5.25" stuff is really old as ODD formats took over for small factor optical drives. You could have printed an external enclosure for the BD-drive with a SATA to USB converter. On another note there is a mysterious little Gigabyte board available from the EU called MJ11-EC1. It has almost a cult following because its so cheap and good and also weird. Perfect for a NAS. I have bought at least 4 of them. I think it would be a good fit for your type of content :)
