So, after I have read the excellent hardware recommendation guide, i selected the following components for my freenas system.
I think i have everything correct, although advise is appreciated.
Currently i have the following setup in mind:
Intel Pentium G4400 Boxed
ASRock Rack E3C236D2I
3x WD Red WD20EFRX 2TB (RAIDZ1 Setup)
or
3x Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB (raid z1 setup)
Fractal Design Node 304 black
2 Kingston DataTraveler Micro USB 2.0 8GB
Samsung M391A2K43BB1 16GB DDR4 memory (ECC)
Seasonic G-series 450 watt PSU
any advise in terms of the disks in use? The toshiba ones have a higher RPM, while they are the same price as the 2TB WD reds.
I have also been looking at WD blue's but because of WD merged the blue and green line i wonder if they have the issue with the aggressive head parking? Is there any list of "safe" blue models?
