Hi all,
I'm looking to build a freenas box. I want to use it for backing up my PCs (in addition to cloud backup) and for recorded TV, so it'll be running Plex and possibly tvheadend. I'm currently looking at the following:
Case: Fractal Design Node 304
Motherboard: Supermicro X10SLH-F
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1231 v3
RAM: 32GB Corsair CT102472BD160B
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 550 GS 80+ GOLD
HDDs: 6x WD Red 3TB WD30EFRX
I had two questions:
1) Is the PSU good enough?
2) Is it possible to have a Samsung PCIe SSD as boot media?
Thanks for your help.
