Some bits and pieces I need gone, sell as parts or build something sellable?

I’ve recently done a significant upgrade and have some stuff no longer needed and way too good to trash that could be quite useful to someone.

I’m not sure if I should sell as bits and pieces, or buy some more parts and assemble a running server.

I have:
Desktop tower case, with 11 hot swap 3.5 bays. (Case natively has 8, but have a 3 into 2 caddy in the dual optical drive bay.) In ok condition.

9x WD Red 4TB drives, age varies from 1 to 7 years, but all pass smart tests.

LSI 9200 8i card, with breakout cables.

I could grab a mobo/CPU/RAM/PSU from marketplace and put it all together with OMV/TruNAS or similar and sell as a NAS/server.

What’s the best option here?

I’m in the Hunter region of NSW, Australia if you’re interested in any of the gear, or a NAS/Server.

Been playing Solo, I think it's time to take the plunge to race against other Humans.

Played GT1 back in the PS1 days, recently picked up a cockpit and GT7. I'm a boomer Aussie with an hour or so a day to play.

I've done all the Menu Books and have been grinding PP800 Sardegna and Spa for credits to get to Collector Level 50 and weekly challenges ect, it's become quite easy to win most things against the AI now. (Except the dirt, where I'm terrible)

I think it's time to move to racing against other humans to show me how terrible I really am at this, but I'm a little daunted on where to start? Tips on what car to start out with and how to not suck too badly would be appreciated.

Sherryl Woods Chesapeake Shores series (Audio Book)

Found a pack with the entire series on ABB but it's old and there is only 1 seed who pops in and out but never connects leaving a small swarm of peers on 89%.

Wholphin gone from fire tv App Store?

Yesterday I added it to one of my firesticks to check it out, I’m not sure but want to give it more time.

Today I tried to install on another fire stick and it’s not there.

Has the time come to ditch the firestick?

EDIT: If you install the Jellyfin App the "Customers also Downloaded" area shows Wholphin and it can be installed from there, so it's still there, just no longer searchable.

Can (or should) I mix WD Red and Ironwolf drives in a RAID array?

I have an OMV NAS that has a RAID6 array of 9 WD Red 4TB drives.

One of the drives is starting to report errors, problem is that WD Reds are pretty much unobtanium here in Australia at the moment.

4TB Ironwolf are readily available.

WD Red are available on aliexpress, are these legit? I’ve heard stories of fakes and kept away.

Terror Zone trackers are showing the wrong zones

As per title.

Has Blizzard done something to prevent trackers working or is it just a glitch in the matrix?

EDIT: Looks to be accurate again
