Hi everyone. I'm looking for some help with hardware selection for my first FreeNAS build. I'll just be using this as a home server storing mainly video and music files. In time, I expect to expand it's storage capacity to ~20 TB. I already have a case, a power supply, and a few WD Red 3 TB drives. Here's what I'm thinking in terms of CPU, motherboard, and RAM:
CPU: Intel Core i3-4360 Haswell Dual-Core 3.7GHz LGA 1150 54W Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4600 BX80646I34360
Motherboard: SUPERMICRO MBD-X10SL7-F-O uATX Server Motherboard LGA 1150 Intel C222 DDR3 1600
ECC RAM: Crucial 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Server Memory Model CT2KIT102472BD160B (upgraded to 32 GB in the future as storage capacity increases)
What do you guys think? Will this CPU/motherboard/RAM combination work? If I've overlooked anything major, please let me know. You won't hurt my feelings. As I said, this is my first build.
