Hello and glad to be finally a registered member of this community. :)
Recently i've put together a small Free NAS server from a few very new and very low power AMD parts :
Motherboard: AsRock AM1B-ITX
Processor: AMD Athlon 5350 APU ( quad core, 25 w TDP )
RAM : 4 GB DDR 3 1600 1.5 V AMD Entertainment Series
HDD : 2 x 1 TB in RAID 1 with ZFS
Power Supply: Cooler Master 520 w
Case: Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced
OS Drive: generic 4 GB Thumb Drive
I know that this platform is not supported yet officially and probably underpowered but it was free for me and runs pretty good for what my needs are with the latest FreeNAS. I am a pretty long time FreeNAS user since the 8.xx revision of the software.
I only have one problem with this setup and i need a few advices .
After powering down the server for the night it comes back online on its own within 3-4 minutes and freezes on boot. If i pull the plug form the power supply and then reinsert it, the server boots normally and works just fine without any problem whatsoever until the next time i want to shut it down then the bug reappears.
I don't have the finnancial means to upgrade or modify this setup or to upgrade so ...
Any advice for me ? :) A software / hardware hack that i can apply to solve my problem?
Thank you in advance and sorry for my poor english ...
