Hi folks,

I am actually building my first NAS DIY for mainly stream from Plex 4k videos (transcoding max 2 clients) and backuping occasionally some personal files. I read a lot during past months to get started. Based on your experience could you tell me what do you think about the below 2 config. Which one you will go for it :

Configuration 1 (I5 10600)
- Asus B460-I plus
- Intel I5 106000
- Fury Beast 32go
- Seagate 4x8 To
- Samsungo evo 250 Go Nvme
- Corsair alimentation CX 430
- Bequiet Pure Rock 2

Configuration 2 (I5 11600k)

Asus B460-I plus
- Intel I5 106000
- Fury Beast 32go
- Seagate 4x8 To
- Samsungo evo 250 Go Nvme
- Corsair alimentation CX 430
- Bequiet Pure Rock 2

Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Alex

Doesn't really matter both systems have the same problem - crappy NIC and I am a bit dubious about the PSU
Use a proper Intel NIC from the hardware guide - which will use up the only available slot
The rest, its consumer gear but it should work - YMMV

I thought I already posted an answer on this one
