This community has been such an amazing resource on my TrueNAS journey. It would be malpractice not to run this build by the collective brains here. I'll try to be as complete as possible to minimize the need for questions (but all are welcome). I'll only request to avoid the rabbit hole that is the subject of ITX builds (which this is).
The build:
I am also considering the ASRock Rack X570D4I-2T, but the only real advantage I can see with this board, apart from freeing up the PCIe slot (which would be used to regain the lost M.2 slots) w 8 SATA onboard, is the 100BaseTX NIC, versus the 2.5G on the Phantom. I'll only be PLEX streaming to max 3 or 4 people at any given time (and rarely, mostly just myself at home). This machine won't be doing much more than that. Not sure the 500 eur premium is worth a little wider network throughput that, if my assumption is correct, I won't be using really anyway.
But, that's the program. Would really love to hear why it won't work lol (letting me know about good choices is welcome too where appropriate, but not expected)
TIA
