I'm looking to build a FreeNAS server for home network storage, Plex streaming & transcoding (to 2 clients), and running some newsgroup/torrent clients.
I've planned out the following:
Fractal Design Define R4
ASRock C2750D4I
16GB Crucial ECC Unbuffered RAM
SeaSonic SSR-450RM 450W PS
WD Red 3TB Drives (x5) (Will also be using a few Seagate 3TB drives I have for now to cut on costs; I will be replacing them within the next few months with WD Reds)
I'd appreciate any feedback/critique before I pull the trigger on the orders.
Additionally, how much of a pain in the rear is it going to be that the ASRock board doesn't have an internal USB header?
