So, back around Feb I purchased a Lenovo TS440 for $300. It's worked great, no issues. Now, a couple of things have come up. Firstly, I need more storage. I've got the 4 bays full of WD Red 3TB drives in Raidz1. So, looking to increase storage, I'm leaning towards filling the other 4 bays, but to do so I'd need to get the backplane and everything required for that, as well as a sata card of some sort. Add that to 4 additional drives, and it's looking quite costly. So, I'm wondering if I should just look at a new server all together. Looking for opinions on that.
Secondly, my mom needs an upgrade to a real server, so I was going to pick up another TS440 for her, but now the price has jumped quite a bit. So, I'm looking for decent options around that price point, and with decent/comparable performance.
Thanks in advance!
