Ok so I usually only build pc's but have a few old pc parts lying around and would like to use them to build a freenas system but the spare motherboards I have are old and don't support ecc ram and only non ecc upto 4gb. So my question is what is this system best suited to, I also know the risk in data corruption from non ecc ram in a server so would it be best suited to being a media server ? What raid or filsystem should I use ?
I have a conroe-1333-d667 mobo with a pentium 4 -3.0ghz 2.99ghz cpu and 4gb ddr2 ram
I selected this setup as it was one of the best I had collecting dust. I also have 3 x 1tb hdd's I could possibly use in this system. once I have this system in place I am thinking of building a far more superior freenas system once I get the hang of things but for now any help & advice on this system for now would be great and much appreciated thanks
