Hi all,
Im planning to deploy this build at home for media consumption and some downloading.
For the media consumption i will be using plex to stream to several devices and for downloading i will be using transmission and couchpotato
The Hard drive setup will be 4x2TB WD red in raidZ
first things first, not sure which mobo&cpu combination is better
option 1:
Asrock Mini-ITX C2550 (C2550D4I)
Has alot of sata ports and low TDP
CPU also seems better
option 2:
Mobo: SuperMirco MBD-X10SAE
CPU: Intel Pentium G3420
Has alot more expansion
can eventually upgrade to Xeon
Ram: Kingston 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 ECC
Case and PSU already sourced.
