Aside from the fact that both are challenging to get, the Be Quiet seems more reachable from overseas. Both supporting ATX 3, PCIe 5, etc. Future proof power supply. Feel safer buying the seasonic but maybe I'm just naive and the Be Quiet is well respected? Also prefer the 1200 headroom...

Hi, I want to add redundant UPS to my FreeNAS server. Actually the UPS is already there, but of course I also want to shutdown FreeNAS (and other connected servers) when battery is low. Overview: There are two UPS, each connected to it's own RCD. The UPS are powering several servers, each...

Hello together, I have a big issue with my freenas. My both pools (for the os (name: freenas-boot) and for my data (name: pool)) were degraded with a lot of errors: frenas-boot is a SSD, connect with usb3 data pool are 4 WD RED 4TB as raidz-1 Yesterday I had time for a new build. At first I...

Hi! I was worried whether I can buy this power supply unit since I want to store my future rig in a DIY open-case on a shelf near the ceiling. The RMx (850W) is advertised to run fanless under small load. Initially (until I buy a stronger CPU/second CPU EDIT: if I do it ever at all. If I do...

I'm working on a new FreeNAS build. It will have: - 11 WD RED storage drives in a 8+3 RAID-Z3 configuration, and - 1 SSD for a SLOG. I'm looking at the EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2, 80+ GOLD 750W power supply. Based on the Hardware Guide, it should have plenty of power. I just can't tell if I can...

Is there a method to trigger a graceful shutdown when FreeNAS loses power to a redundant power supply? I've got a Supermicro SC825 2U Rackmount Server case which has redundant Power Supplies. I've got a UPS with no USB data connection to signal power loss. I'd like to plug one PS into the UPS...

Hello everybody! My problem: whenever I go to turn on my system, it begins to boot 4-5 times before it finally seems to "catch" and stay online. The screen turns on and everything, the motherboard starts to load everything in, and then I can hear the power supply sounding like it's clicking...

Hi everybody, I'm sorry for my english, it's not my first language. I know that it sounds weird but I had to "transform" my gaming rig in a NAS until I got money to buy "real freenas hardware". I removed the graphics card, put in some HDDs, and now I got a i7 4770k, 8 GB RAM, 5 HDDs and a...

So, I have this board X11SSH-CTF with a (Skylake) Xeon E3 and I am planning to buy this PSU 500W seasonic, SS-500L2U. I have 12 WD NAS RED (3TB) and maxed out RAM. Will 500W suffice ? CPU is: 80 W TDP. Drives are: 4W (let's say 10W) Board: can be probably ignored RAM: can be probably ignored...
