Hi everyone,
I'm new to the NAS world and would like to build my first one. I have an Intel i3-3220 chip that I recently replaced with a i7 chip in one of my computer so I figured I would use that since it's readily available.
I'm looking to use this NAS for a few reasons. I have 5 Hikvision IP cameras (1080P @ 15 FPS) that I would like to record on the NAS. Hikvision uses NFS for this and has built in NVR abilities in the camera software.
Aside from recording the cameras, I would also like to use the NAS as a centralized place to store files that I am working on (I do web development but have multiple computers in the house that I work on), as well as streaming music, movies and of course backing up important files. I need to be able to connect to the NAS from out of the network and I'm wondering if there are some Android apps available that can connect with FreeNAS. I see Sweet Home Wifi is pretty good and popular, that will be good for backing up the pictures on my phone. What about an app to stream movies and music?
I am looking to build the NAS with the following components:
- Intel Core i3-3220 3.30 GHz
- ASUS P8B75-M/CSM LGA 1155 Intel B75 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
- Cooler Master N200 Mini Case
- Toshiba 3 TB HDD 7200 RPM (only 1 for now, money is tight)
- Corsair CX Series 430 Watt ATX/EPS Modular 80 PLUS Bronze ATX12V/EPS12V 384 Power Supply CX430M
- 2 GB PC3-128000 RAM
How do these components sound for what I am trying to accomplish?
Thanks in advance for all of the help!
