I didn't realize the ASRock AB350 Pro4 that I bought has a Realtek NIC which I now know is to be avoided with FreeNAS. I have 2ea. (NIB) Intel EXPI9301CTBLK Network Adapters that will fit and not be in conflict.
Questions:
1. Would I benefit from using two NICs or should I just use one (multi-devices at the same time will be using this NAS to stream audio and video (Plex)?
2. If two or more NICs is preferred in this setup, would it be better to buy one multi port NIC rather than two separate NICs?
Note: not to get into much detail, my network has decent bones.
