first build : ECC + Xeon + HDMI MB ?

[ibasaw]

hi,

I want to have ECC + hdmi on board motherboard + 10 Satas port

I want to replace my thecus N7700pro with 7 * 3 TO drives.

Used for NAS (samba, sickrage, pyload, twonky ...), and media server : plex or kodi
Need gigabit transfer, actually got 100MO/S between windows and thecus.
On: 24/24/7 365/365

here my temporary build:

MB: Asrock C226M WS
CPU: Intel Xeon Processor E3-1231V3B 3.4 4 LGA 1150
RAM: Transcend 8GB DDR3 Memory 240Pin Long-DIMM DDR3-1600 ECC Unbuffer Memory TS1GLK72V6H * 4 (32GO)
DVD: Asus 24x DVD-RW Serial-ATA Internal OEM Optical Drive DRW-24B1ST (Black)
DD: seagate ST3000DM001 * 7
PSU: Seasonic SSR-450RM ATX 12V/EPS 12V 450-Watt 80 Plus Gold certified PFC Power Supply
SDD: Intel 520 Series Solid-State Drive 60 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-Inch - SSDSC2CW060A310
CASE: Fractal Design Define R4 Cases, Black Pearl (FD-CA-DEF-R4-BL-W)

Don't think, this is the good MB for this, need help for the motherboard.

I prefer to have more than less for futur upgrades, add sata pci card + new DD, ...

price for cpu is 400$ max

What are your advises ?

seagate ST3000DM001

I don't recommend them, I've seen more than one member who had problems (very early death) with this particular model. I recommend the WD Red (or the Seagate NAS) ;)

Why a DVD drive? you can install from an USB stick.

just curious but why do you want hdmi on the board?

I can one-up you on that. I could probably dig up a small pile of failed ST3000DM001's.

Also, don't pick a smaller drive. Go for the slightly larger 4TB drive. When you do the math for what your NAS costs, the 3TB drives do not make economic sense in most cases.

thanks for your answers!

the drives i already got them...so i want to keep them for now.

hdmi is for xbmc throught my AV receiver, so i can watch movies without power up my pc desktop.

dvd drive is easier and don't cost too much, a dvd is always playable, sometimes usb key just don't want to load ;)

but for the motherboard .... is this one is enought ? there are only 6 satas ports

You could get a cheap media streamer and watch movies from the Freenas without the need of turning on your desktop!

Skip the HDMI, DVD player and ssd. None are worth the money and probably won't work.
