Hi everyone!
I'm looking into building a Freenas or Truenas core system, and am not quite sure if the components I've chosen will work well together, or if I could do better.
I've read a bit through the other posts, but found none with a very similar choice of components, therefore I'm opening this new thread.
So far, I've chosen the following:
I realize there was some issue with mislabeled WD red disks a while back, should one rather go for Ironwolfs?
Price is of course also a consideration, I'm based in germany, our prices are generally a bit higher than stateside...
I appreciate any help!

So far, I've chosen the following:
- Asrock Rack C236 WSI
- Intel I3-6320 / I3-7100T
- 2x Samsung 16GB DDR4 ECC PC4-2133P-E M391A2K43BB1-CPB
- 2x Crucial BX500 2.5 120GB for mirrored system partition
- Fractal Node 304 (I have this already, currently housing a different PC that will be discarded)
- Existing ATX Powersupply
- 6x 4TB / 5x 6TB Hdds Seagate Ironwolf/ WD red for raidz2 pool
