would be worried of dust settling on the internals with such large holes Mike.New project started today.
I'm going to replace my home server with a solid state solution.
Involving a Raspberry Pi 5 and an addon card carrying 4 NVMe SSDs.
Once I've got it all working, I will be making a suitable enclosure.
This is the hardware

Whilst waiting for the components, I've been experimenting making some ventilation grilles/holes that will be built into the top and base of the enclosure.
Two different grid/grille options currently being printed - see this link

unless you have the hole's panels vertically and force vent it somehow. Else you'll have to remember to remove and air pressure the thing once a year or so (at least down here with lots of dry weather and dust around)
