My current system:
Motherboard: SUPERMICRO MBD-X10SLL-F-O uATX
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1220 v3 @ 3.10GHz (4 cores)
RAM: 32 GiB
Storage: 5x 3TB WD Red 5400 RPM, SATA
NIC: Single Intel
Roles: Plex, Deluge, Sonarr, Radarr, Sabnzbd, Tatuilli
A new server I inherited:
Model: DELL T430
RAM: 72 GB RAM
CPU: Dual Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 @ 3.00 GHZ
RAID Controller: PERC H730
Storage: 8x 1TB 7.2k RPM, SAS
NIC: Broadcom NetXtreme Dual Port
So as you can see, the new system has a way better CPU, and two of them. More RAM, faster disks, Hardware RAID Controller.
If I move Plex and/or other plugins over to new server, will it perform better? I know the specs are better, but I would like to ensure there are no gotchas for performance on the Dell based on the PERC, etc. Basically looking for better Plex streaming, transcoding, etc. Will be moving to 4k soon.
