Hi all,
I have checked the various guides and wanted opinions on reusing the following list of hardware to run FreeNAS. It is currently running openfiler (I know, I know) and want to replace it with FreeNAS. I was thinking that the only thing that was really needing to be replaced that didn't seem to fit the standard FreeNAS specs was the disk controller. Any opinions?
Here is what I have (2 sets to be exact)
1x - SUPERMICRO CSE-836TQ-R800B Black 3U Rackmount Server Case 800W (1 + 1) Redundant AC-DC high-efficiency power supply w/ PFC
1x - LSI MegaRAID SAS LSI00210 (9280-16i4e) SATA/SAS 6Gb/s PCIe 2.0 w/ 512MB onboard memory controller card, Single
1x - ASUS P8B WS LGA 1155 Intel C206 ATX Intel Xeon E3 Server/Workstation Motherboard
1x - Intel Xeon E3-1230 Sandy Bridge 3.2GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1155 80W Quad-Core Server Processor BX80623E31230
2x - Kingston 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1333 Server Memory Server Hynix M Model KVR13E9/8HM
2x - Crucial M4 CT064M4SSD2 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
10x - HGST Deskstar 3.5-Inch 2TB 7200RPM SATA III 6 Gbps 64 MB Cache Internal Hard Drive (0F12115)
1x - Intel E1G44HTBLK Server Adapter I340-T4 (Bulk Pack) 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express 2.0 4 x RJ45
The SSDs are connected to the motherboard via the SATA 6.0 Gb/s connectors and are mirrored. The MegaRAID will be replaced by a standard controller instead of RAID.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for your input!
