Q: Is it quite normal to put like non-rack mountable stuff in a rack?
It's really just a nice way of organizing it, and yeah, having it all contained and in a nicely ventilated box.
Mark Down in the Console Caves
Q: Does CodeMD actually store your notes as Markdown files on disk, or is it even like a database within the application?

Q: How do you back up and sync what you've got in your Kodi to somewhere for, in case you destroy that container by accident?
