Hi there,
I'm working on my first NAS that I gonna build in a near future and I'm looking at the hardware recommandations in this forum and on the web. It looks like most of the time, high-end, "enterprise level", expensive, hardware is recommanded. But as I said I'm looking for something for my personnal use si would like to keep the config under the 400$ (without the disks). My goal is to achieve a configuration that can support a Flex Media server and store my "important" data and to make it accessible everywhere. For the FreeNas configuration I was thinking at a first pool with one drive of 6TB for movies, tv-shows without redundancy and an other pool with 4 drives of 6TB in RAID10 for 12TB for photos,... According to my own research I ended up with a hardware configuration that looks like this:
- Motherboard: ASRock B365M Pro4
- Processor: Intel Pentium Gold G5400 (3.7 GHz)
- RAM: Crucial DDR4 16 Go 2666 MHz CL19 Dual Rank X8
- SilverStone SST-CS380 (I'm not finding anything cheaper unfortunately)
For the disks I would see based on the discounts available, but I know that I need 5 6TB disks to start.
Well I'm looking for any advices, I don't know if I'm totaly misunderstanding the hardware required for such a system but I hope not.
Thank's for your time.
