I plan on purchasing a Supermicro 2U server with the following specs, and was wondering if there are any red flags or compatiblity issues with the build. I'm not a total newbie (20yr linux sysadmin), but also not a TrueNAS or ZFS expert (yet) I'd just like to make sure I have not overlooked anything. I am new to this site (this is my first post), but have already read the basic required reading - Hardware Recommendations Guide, 10G Primer, ZFS Introduction, and a few others. I'm not totally new to ZFS either, I've been managing basic pools used for backups for about 8 years, but haven't done anything too advanced with ZFS or run a production TrueNAS server yet. I've installed TrueNAS on a lab server and gotten familiar with how to perform basic functions, and also watched my fair share of YT videos on the topic.
If you notice any red flags with this build, or recommend different hardware (eg: NIC, Controller, etc), please let me know. Thank you.
