Currently have a build with dual 5650Ls that's getting a bit long in the tooth.
I want
1. fast transfers with my newly-added 10G networking for transferring video/photos to/from the NAS.
2. solid performance on the Jails/VMs.
3. IPMI that doesn't require Java plugins
4. EEB/CEB form-factor. The Supermicro E-ATX form factor does not work in my chassis. The PSU on the chassis abuts the top of the IO, essentially.
I'm thinking I might go with dual e5-2697 v2s so I can use existing DDR3 RAM. I'm having a hard time finding a motherboard that fits my requirements, though...
I have a jail for Nextcloud, and will soon be moving a small Linux webserver (for development projects, not production) and a Linux Bitwarden/Vaultwarden server to the NAS via bhyve.
NIC: Chelsio T520.
HBAs:
LSI 9211-8i
Oculink 16x dual 8i for NVMe
Storage:
Boot: 2x Intel S3500 Sata SSDs
Main pool - 4 - 4TB WD Reds with mirror vdevs, though that's filling up rapidly. Will probably move to 8x 4TB in a yet undecided configuration.
"Hot Pool" for photo/video projects - 3x 2TB pci 3.0 consumer NVMe in raidz1
Vm/IOcage pool - 2 - 1TB SATA SSDs
