Hey guys,
Looking at building a FreeNAS server with ZFS. Here's what I've already got :
Athlon X2 250 (w/ Scythe Shuriken cooler)
Seasonic 300W power supply
With that, thinking of going with :
Asus M4A88T-M/USB3
6 X Hitachi 3K5000 3TB hard drives (in RAIDZ2 config)
Some HD for boot (on the board's IDE port)
Hesitating between 4 and 8 gigs of memory, probably the latter
NZXT H2 case
Would that sound about right? 4 data drives, 2 parity? This hardware selection is also based on Memory Express's availability in Edmonton, I'll be going down there this weekend.
Any show stoppers in there?
Cheers!
