Hi Everyone. I currently have a Supermicro X10Drl-i motherboard with 4 storage disks attached and truenas installed on SSD
I have the hardware housed in a tower case
I am now almost completely out of storage and need to add additional hard drives but I have no physical room to store them
I am looking to upgrade to a rackmount chassis and I'm wondering if I'm better off getting a 4u chassis and housing both the server hardware and disks in one chassis or separate the two by having the server in a smaller rackmount chassis and connect the disks via a DAS chassis (or something like that...)
I'm not sure what the benefits are of each but I'm open to suggestions.
I have a budget of about £800 but I'd rather not use all of that
Thanks in advanced!
