Hello Everyone,
Thanks for reading past the topic. I am not sure how many HDDs i should buy. Currently I employ a qnap consumer nas with 2*3TB WD Reds, and the hardware for my freeNAS that i already own follows:
What I like to have is the option to start smallish and then expand as I go.
Maybe something like this vdev0(4hdd+1 parity drive) + vdev1(4hdd+1parity drive) + vdev2(4hdd+1parity drive), although raidz1 is dead?
thx
Thanks for reading past the topic. I am not sure how many HDDs i should buy. Currently I employ a qnap consumer nas with 2*3TB WD Reds, and the hardware for my freeNAS that i already own follows:
- X11SSH-F (6 sata connectors)
- crossflashed IBM LSI ServeRAID-M1015 ( 16 sata devices)
- i3 6300
- 16Gb ECC RAM
- m2. 128Gb ssd (but thinking about a sataDOM)
- a Sharkoon t9 + 3 Icydock flexcage mb97sp-B (max 15HDDs i can put comfortably in the case)
What I like to have is the option to start smallish and then expand as I go.
