This is my first server and FreeNAS build I'm doing right now. I am planning on using this for 16 TB of usable space with 6 x 4TB HDDs in RAID-Z2 on FreeNAS with plex. Also I want to run virtual machines on it too.
Right now, I've decided on a ASRock E3C236D2I Mini-ITX and Intel Xeon E3-1220 v6.
When I try to find RAM approved by ASRock to use in there motherboard, the Memory QVL list is located on ASRock site here: http://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=E3C236D2I#Memory
I can't figure out how I can use the Module and Part No values to find a DIMM I can buy. When I try to google search these sticks, nothing shows up of something I can buy.
I know I will need Unbuffered DDR4 2133MHz 16GB DIMMS. I think I should go with one 16GB DIMM now, to make room for upgrading in the future (since RAM is super expensive now), since if I have 16TB of storage that would require 16GB of RAM space, plus the RAM I will need for the apps and virtualization.
I was thinking of https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KK8XNLA/ref=psdc_172500_t1_B00MP2IX1O
or https://www.amazon.com/dp/b01dkbpy2e/?tag=extension-kb-20
What should I buy?
Thank you for your help!
