Hi im in the process of planning on building a NAS build. intially i was going to opt for synology nas but now looking at the money saving as well as the performance increases you can get through a DIY solution ive decided to go down that route. Im planning on building a 8 disk nas intially starting with 3 16tb EXOS X18 drives and adding more further down the line as and when the need for more storage arises.My inital plan was to build intel 12600k system on the B760-i platform with DDR 5 to make it furture proof but by reading some of the posts im concerned i might be going in the wrong direction and may fall into issues further down the line with the TRUE NAS software.The server will be used for 3 main things:-
- File Storage
- Plex Streaming - predominatly streaming 4K
- Running a small number of virtual machines if required
