I have a freenas setup, and now with request from the wife I get to build a 2nd one.
Newegg has these 4TB refurbs on sale and from what I can tell they look good?
Refurbished: Seagate Exos 7E8 ST4000NM004A 4TB SAS 12Gb/s 7.2K RPM 4Kn 256MB 3.5" Server HDD - Newegg.com
They are on sale for the next 15 hours.
They look like they are (CMR), that is the good one right?
If I do a 14 drive array, it looks like I will get:
Total Performance = 904 MB/s
Total usable capacity = 48.00 TB
Number of RAID groups = 1
Number of drives per RAID group = 14
Single RAID group performance = 904 MB/s
Cost per TB usable = 20.42
I am really hoping to make this new system faster than the first one. Beyond storage, which has been great, the box is slower than I had hoped.
