Hi,
I'v been using FreeNAS from October 2012 and I'm very satisfied with what is does for me.
Now i'd like to upgrade/replace it.
I'm using a setup that most users would pass on today, AMD, non-ECC and Realtek NIC
The drives I use in this setup is 4x WD Green 3TB, that I'm planning to reuse in additional pools.
Now I'm planning to build something more serious with parts that has better hardware-support.
I'v done reading on the forums, but I sure have missed something.
Now for the hardware that I plan to purchase for this new build.
Fractal Design Node 804 chassi,
this will fit 10x 3.5" and 2x 2.5" drives, I'm planning on using all 10 slots for 3.5"
6xWD Green/Red 3TB for the first pool,
these model has been working fine in the current setup so ill stick with them.
Supermirco X10SL7-F,
as suggested by danb35
Intel-Xeon-Processor-E3-1230
as suggested by danb35
Samsung M391B1G73QH0-YK0
4x 8gb modules = 32gb
Fractal Design Newton R3 600W/1000W,
the 600W is listed to support 9 sata, and the 1000w 12.
Not sure what way to go here, if it is just the cables and Watts that differ and not the number of ports on the actual unit.
600W, will that be enough?
SanDisk Ultra Fit 16gb
Two of these for mirrored boot.
APC Back-UPS BX700U
I have never used an UPS before, I'm very open for input on this area.
What I use FreeNAS for today
Right now im using my FreeNAS for storage and playback of handball-matches that are recorded in 1080p, and backups of my laptop and desktop.
What I will I use FreeNAS for
This pool will be for the handball-matches
This pool is not encrypted today, but I'd like the new pool to be.
This will take the new 6x Red-drives. RAID-Z2
I would like to have an OpenVPN-server in a jail, for this ill use 2x of the current Green-drives. RAID-Z1
I'm also planning on running a jail to user as a programming envirement, for this ill also use 2x of the current Green-drives. RAID-Z1
I wonder if you see any big mistakes in my build or something that should be upgraded or added,
I have some room to additions in my budget.
