Basically planning on making a homeserver for XBMC. Other than serving as a NAS i plan to enable the Sickbeard/Couchpotato/SABNZBD and the built-in torrent client (Transmission?)
A way of controlling all of this remotely from a smartphone would also be nice, though that probably isn't specific to FreeNAS.
All of this taken into consideration, here's what I've managed to come up with based on threads from this forum and help from users in this thread:
My first FreeNAS
Chassis: Fractal Design Node 304
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1225v2 3,2GHz If anyone has any input here, it would be much appreciated. Overpowered/underpowered?
PSU: HX Series HX650 Power Supply — 650 Watt 80 PLUS® Gold Certified Modular PSU
Motherboard: Intel S1200KPR
Memory: 8 or 16 GB of ECC ram, probably Kingston
HDD: 4 x WD30EFRX (3TB red disks) - might go with the 2TB. Initially I think it will be 2 drives, then i'll add another 2-4 later.
OS HD: SANDISK CRUZER BLADE USB 2.0 8GB I've always favored Sandisk for USB or SD memory
IBM ServeRAID M1015 crossflashed seems to be the right way to go.
So any suggestions on what I should change in this build?
