I'm just about finished with my PRO v2 build, just waiting on a few more wiring bits to come in. (Would have ordered yours but I'm in the US) Printed on a X2D with PETG CF & PET CF for the AIO mount. Had to cut the case model to fit my 256mm bed. Used the remix for the top and bottom panels. Printed @ .16mm layer height on a Cryogrip plate.

Thanks! This is my Bamboo Studio project (X2D). I think it will open in Prusa Slicer? I'd recommend getting someone to print it for you if at all possible as the cuts do impact the rigidity of the case. I superglued the main case. Its holding up OK so far.

@Inkog3 Thank you for your response and for sharing this. I have a Bambu Lab P1S... The project .zip file is not available for download. I think you need to wait until the file has been uploaded to the servers before posting the comment. Thanks again! |

Final Build Pics I have most of the software sorted. Running SteamOS with Control Center, TRCC Linux, and OpenLinkHub. I'm going to wipe it one more time since I'm running the preview build (Kernel 7.2), and it isn't fully supported by Control Center yet.

I uploaded it to my Google Drive, try that. |

Wow, that looks awesome, buddy... |

White! With ARGB!

Finishing up my V2. Not sure how I feel about the white and grey faceplate but it's removable so I can always have another go at it. Maybe Black and Grey with a clear ARGB strip.

For vertical, I think the display panel looks best, I will soon design a new led strip faceplate that will relocate the led array into the faceplate, will be a more vertical friendly, I also want to incorperate the a small ARGB controller into the face plate so you just connect a single USB-C to the Faceplate, this will allow you to quick swap from ARGB strip, to a TURZX 3.5" or 5" display, or a blank faceplate, kind of niche but for those that drag the machine to lan based comps, as some do, they can swap out the LCD panel to avoid damage. I have some cool things on my plan for rugged transporting of these machines with soft TPU pop in bumpers and rugged carry case system, carry handle for the cases, lots of cool addon ideas :)

Yeah the front panel is a bit akward for vertical with the designs at least. I couldn't justify the screen on this run, but some vertical friendly designs would be awesome. I may end up running it horizontal, printed both versions of feet. You're an animal brother, as always thank you for all you do for this awesome community! |

@NexGen-3D-Printing Do you happen to have an SSD caddy designed for the slot with the mounting hole across from the fans for the AIO. There's huge realestate there, I was going to design a mount but if you already have one in the works I can wait. |
|
Yes I do, I will be uploading a bunch of new files to the Printables pages later today, I was supposed to do this last week, but I have been over seas on business with my day job and only retuned this week, trying to corss off a list of things. |
Yes!!!!!! Awesome! I ordered some USB A breakout boards and am going to try to make a 3D printed dual USB 180. Thought about desoldering the usb 2 connector and putting a pin header there but the solder is high temp and I don't want to modify the board. |

Use an M3 x 8mm bolt, and 1 x flanged threaded insert.

I'm running 0.025 PA and getting great top layers with the standard line pattern. Speed is most likely it, I'm running 200/300, thus higher temps, thus uneven cooling on some features. Not a huge deal on the ssd caddy, but for the USB hub reveal it really sucks. I lowered my SCV to 5 for the second caddy and it helped 3/4 of those ridges. I over provisioned the buck after reading that SSDs can pull 5-8W during intense read/write. I have some of the small ones with the metal wafer pots also, thought about it but over engineered it for peace of mind. Agreed on the cabling of the FRS500 - I cut them down and crimped micro fits directly on the 12v lines, leaving just the 10pin and a spare 12v line for the commander sata. I like your setup there though, get those rigid cables out of the picture. NVME to Sata arrives tomorrow so I will be able to test it out. Not sure how to raid0 those two game storage drives yet but I'll figure it out. |

If your on Bazzite, then you can install "Cockpit" from the Bazzite Portal, that gives you a gui to use mdadm for creating raid arrays, Ive also been looking to experiment with NVMEof and iSCSI as I have 10GB networking, 2.5GB USB 3 Nic's work and give you about 250Mb per secon speeds, I was hoping to have 1 instance of the game files on my rack server, and have all my machines access them over NVMEof, and just host the bigger heavier games locally |
|
I have 10gbe network at home also - would be interesting, unless using more than one at same time I guess - could get messy. I am running CachyOS with the bc250 kernel. Bazzite had a couple of quirks and seemed to be slightly less performant for me. I am sure there is a guide somewhere for software raid on CachyOS. I am interested in NVME to 10gbe, I have another node on my server network that would benefit from SFP+ DAC connection to my core 10gbe switch. |

@NexGen-3D-Printing - I have finally finished the ProV2 - was trying to get the Commander Duo in to CoolerControl, failed and used the application you suggested in your guide ( openlinkhub ). My issue there is that the BC250 sensors don't show up in that app ( I would ditch coolercontrol for the other app, just want to manage everything in the same place ). Not sure what's up there. I am also wondering if you have worked on any vertical friendly non LCD front panels? If so I am absolutely interested, otherwise I will probably work on some of my own. I just don't know how to export a multi-part model, but I am sure there are guides out there somewhere. Thanks in Advance! |

Also - the SATA setup you suggested works fantastic! I have a boot drive and two 1TB SATA SSDs in a BTRFS Raid0 (Raid1 Metadata) setup. Thank you so much for pointing me in that direction, it might be my go to on these builds from now on if I can find 1TB SSDs for a decent price ( or even 500gb ones ). I think if I set up the boot partition correctly on one of the drives I would be able to boot without the separate boot drive - once the kernel loads it should be able to see the btrfs stripe just fine for the root partition. Very cool stuff! |
