The main purpose this build is to stream/transcode media, store music/photos, backup my computers.
I thought to use RAIDZ2 for data preservation (6x 4TB disks) and Plex Media server for media streaming.
This is the build that I have in mind:
Plex Media Server CPU requirement is "Intel Core 2 Duo processor 2.4 GHz or better". I think the E3-1265L would be a safe choice, but I'd be happy to hear suggestions
I was thinking about a 650W PSU, would that be an overkill?
Looking forward your suggestion ;-)
