Hello all here,
after my 2nd 3TB HDD runs out of space, i think its time to do it properly and set up a NAS for this.
I did read all stickys here and googled around a lot so i realy hope i have considered everything needed to build the NAS. Just its so much stuff you need to know... id feel way better if some of the more experienced persons could have a look at it and tell me for any bigger misstakes i made.
As chassi i plan to use an old "normal" pc chassi. Space is not a requirement so i see no reason to buy a new one. It provides 6 HDD spaces too.
For the mainboard i plan to use the Asus M5A97 R2.0. I know it uses a "Realtek® 8111F" for LAN, but as far as i know from google, it is supported now, isn't it?
The CPU will be the AMD FX4 4100 Four-Core Prozessor Black Edition (3,6GHz, Sockel AM3+, 4MB Cache, 95 Watt). Google says it supportes AES too, so in case i ever want to encrypt my files, it is there already.
For RAM i want to use 2x Kingston Technology ValueRAM 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 PC3-12800 ECC this is what the memory finder linked in the stickys spit out.
As HDDs i want to use 3x Western Digital WD30EFRX Red 3TB and 3x Seagate ST3000VN000 Interne Festplatte 3TB. The idea beeing that i do not want to stick to one single brand for the hdds.
As power supply im unsure if i can use the Be quiet! BN140 System Power 7 (300w)or if i have to use the more expensive Corsair CP-9020075-EU CS450M CS Series Modular 80+ Gold (450w)
For the UPS APC Back UPS PRO USV 550VA.
This should result in 12TB storage on a RaidZ2 for a total of ~1000€.
Could somebody take a look at it and give me some tipps? Especialy i try to get this build cheaper. Thanks a lot already.
