So I've been looking at used Supermicro servers on Ebay. And the prices seem pretty good...
I don't need state of the art...
I've combed through a lot of Supermicro forum searches and it seems that some people have no issues with used
Supermicro servers.. Other than making sure the hardware is what will work with Freenas..
So around $300- $400, I can get a decent Supermicro motherboard with a lot of memory and 2 cpus in a chassis...
My dilemma is I know the 1 - 3U chassis's are loud.....
Would I be able to migrate the Supermicro motherboard, to an E-ATX Tower.
I'm hoping this would help with the sound...
