My build has:
Boot: Fast 32 GB USB 3.0 Stick (Transcend)
Disk (Internal PCIe MVMe controller): 1X Intel P600 M2 PCIe 128 G
Disks (Internal SATA Controller which has 6 ports):
3X WD RED 4TB
1X Samsung Spintpoint 1B
1X SSD (120 GB)
1x SSD (32 GB)
Disk (Additional SATA controller):
4X Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ
Unused (on the shelve): 2X Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ
I have a couple of categories of data to store: (all data will have SMB shares)
- 6 to 8 TB of (Expendable) Media Files (Can be lost, no fun but I will survive)
- 2 TB of Precious Data (May not be lost)
I will be running SABnzbd, Sonarr and Plex Media Server. Plex does not need to transcode (I am using plexConnect on RPI/Kodi).
So I figured i put the 3 WD Red disks in a ZFS-Z1 Volume and add the Intel P600 SSD as Cache to store the Media Files.
SABnzbd will be unzippen, merging, repairing etc .. so i was thinking to assign one Samsung Spinpoint as a scratch drive for this or maybe the 120 Gb SSD?
The precious data i want to store on ZFS-Z2 Volume using the additional sata controller.
So that is the rough idea, suggestion and or advice are welcome.
