Hello all,
I have finally completed Stage 1 - The Design. These components are what I have researched (and are easily available locally) for my build.
CPU - Intel E3-1220v5 BX80662E31220V5 - supplier link / amazon
Motherboard - Supermicro X11SSH-LN4F - supplier link / amazon
I initially looked at the Supermicro X11SSH-F but, from what I read, the LN4F seems to be the better product, yet it is over $100 cheaper. What is the reason for this?
Memory - Samsung M391A2K43BB1-CPB 16GB - supplier link / amazon
The supported Memory listed by Supermicro is the same Model No, but has a -CRC suffix. Is there any difference between CPB and CRC memory modules?
Power - Seasonic G-750 - supplier link / amazon does not have this model listed (or maybe model no's differ b/w countries)
Boot drive - DataTraveler 100 G3 - manuf. link / amazon. The only reason I have opted for this is that I have a new one sitting here at home.
Case - Antec 1900 Green Nineteen-Hundred-Green - supplier link / amazon has no listing. The only reason I have chosen this one if for the number of drive bays.
Data Drives - A separate post shortly
This will be predominately used to host media files (Blu-ray, dvd, flac, photos) and to a smaller extent a small home business. Three concurrent users at most. No transcoding of media files all served to Kodi.
Am looking at approx. 21TB of storage with a combination of re-using existing drives and new drive purchase. I will write a post separately regarding this, just to ensure I have my methodology correct.
Where possible I have used components from the Hardware Recommendations publication.
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions. I can then start on Stage 2- The purchase and assembly.
Thank you
