Hi there,
I’ve got quite a complex home network system at home, and am looking to replace my rather old and slow NAS server.
I work from home, so this would be a file server, ftp server, potentially also running some VMs for testing program builds etc.
I’d also be using it very heavily as a Plex media server, transcoding up to 4x 1080p streams at a time so I need a cpu score of at least 10-12k.
I’ve been looking around on eBay and come across what looks to be a very promising system with pretty damn good specs.
My question is, would the following spec work with FreeNas and would all 4 nodes as as one huge server?
These are the specs and components.
