Hello guys, I'm new to the storage world and FreeNAS so forgive me if I'm wrong. In our company we are planning to make a proxmox cluster consisting of 4 nodes and a dedicated storage. We already have the servers for the various nodes and we have decided how to make the network but we still have the storage question. We do not have a big budget so we were thinking of buying an used HP DL380e G8 25x bay SFF with an LSI SAS 9207-8i HBA controller. In your opinion, is the HP server suitable for storage with that controller? We do not need a great performance for this we have opted for the WD Red 2.5". In case you can tell me something at the same price?
The specs of the DL380e:
- Xeon E5-2407 V2
- 32GB Ram
- 10x WD Red 1TB
Total cost: 800€ without discs.
Thanks a lot.
