Sophos released their new hardware SOPHOS64 with 64-Bit technology!
No… just kidding :D
I transformed an old Nintendo 64 to a case for my UTM hardware:
I needed to grind a screwdriver to release the screws:
Hardware from 1996 :->
I bend the CPU cooler from my Intel BLKD2500CCE board to fit in the case:
Washing the case:
I need to cut and grind some plastic stuff to fit in my board:
The power supply and the HDD don’t fit in, so I will store them in a second case later:
Saving the original N64 buttons:
Polishing the button for new “Sophos64” button ;)
MrMuscle! Best polish creme :D
THE “GRID”!:
I wanted a white console so I used acryl paint for it:
This is my “second” case behind the N64 case to store the HDD and power supply:
I hope you like my work ^_^
What hardware / case are you using for your Sophos UTM or XG? Where do you “hide” it?

Wow, that’s awesome! Now I feel like I have to totally rethink the design of my first UTM 9 Home appliance using a mini ITX board in a Design Nano S case. I wouldn’t mind your feedback on my parts list anyway…

Thanks :)
your hardware is very good! Xeon and 8GB RAM with an SSD! I like your case, i love this “puristic” front.
