At the moment im using Unraid on my Server with this config:
CPU Prozessoren: 2 x Intel Xeon E5645 SLBWZ 6C Server Prozessor 6x 2,40 GHz 12MB Cache 1366 CPU
RAM: 32GB Registered ECC DDR3 RAM (8x 4GB DIMM)
running a Plex Media Server with DVR and the remove advertising function, GitLab,UnifyController, one WindowsVM (only used sometimes) and some linuxVM's (max 3 at once online) for websites/smarthomestuff/testings.
Now I want to get into FreeNAS and I was thinking about some configurations:
Config 1
Config 2
Early next year I want to upgrade my Network to 10Gb, some of my Desktop Machines already have 10GB ports. So ofc both of the Boards have a 10GB nic. If I decide to go with Config 1 Option 1 I would upgrade my "Old Server" with a 10GB RJ45 NIC.
Thanks in advance :)))

Now I want to get into FreeNAS and I was thinking about some configurations:
Config 1
- Supermicro X10SDV-4C+-TLN4F or Supermicro X10SDV-6C+-TLN4F 6xSATA
- 3 x 8TB(Seagate IronWolf) Raidz1
- 2 x 16GB Ram
- Maybe also 3 x 500GB SSD if using NFS or ISCSI?
Option 1: Use the old Server with XCP NG XenServer(SSD's), saving the main VM's there and just save my Movies and Backups on the FreeNAS or using a SSD Raid on the FreeNAS over NFS or ISCSI for the VM's
Option 2: Not sure the Intel Xeon D-1528 got the power for removing the advertising in my DVR recordings. Instead of the 3x500GB SSD pool on the FreeNAS using a m.2 SSD for the jails(Backups and Movies ofc on the HDD pool). How is the FreeNAS jail/plugin performance over the XenServer performance?
Config 2
- Supermicro X11SPi-TF 10xSATA
- Intel Xeon Silver 4110, 8x 2.10GHz
- 3 x 8TB(Seagate IronWolf) Raidz1
- 2 x 16GB Ram
Running everything on this box with a m.2 SSD for the jails, just thinking about the performance of FreeNAS VM's/plugins

What do you think about my "problem", I'm thinking about this for a while now.. reading and reading forum threads but I can't really decide cause I can't test the real performance. So I hope someone can help me there. Thanks in advance :)))
