I am aware that this list doesn't have a PSU, I have a corsair cx430 and a cx750m leftover from old builds, I was planning on using one of those, unless the community sees them as horrible threats to data security. I am also looking for recommendations on a UPS to use with the build, it doesn't have to be fantastic, just something that will keep the build running long enough to shut down safely.
In terms of what I will be doing, I am planning on using this as a backup server for my house (parents, brother, etc) as well as storing family photos that my parents no longer want to keep on their computers. (they will also be backed up to picasa or a similar service, but those services degrade picture quality, so having the original files would be ideal). I also might end up running the plex plugin to stream media, along with transmission or something similar for torrents.
Thank you for your help!
