Please read and i will explain it.
I am building a 48tb Freenas for my livestream videos backups. After our livestream event, we will upload the videos on our youtube channel and then currently we will save it in a external hardisk. i am planing to build this Nas just to store all my videos in it using raidz (aka Raid 5). Max about 3 users will access this data at a time. So will i need 64GB of ecc ram or will 16 gb do for my work flow because we are just using the nas for storing our data and sometime access the old data if needed.
Below are the Nas hardware configuration
1) Motherboard
MSI C236M Workstation (its not easy to get asrock / Supermicro motherboard in malaysia and that is why i went for this motherbaord)
2) CPU
Intel® Core™ i3-6100 Processor (3M Cache, 3.70 GHz)
3) RAM
Kingston 16bg 2133MHz DDR4 ECC (Model KVR21R15D4/16)
4) Storage
WD Red 8TB NAS - 5400 RPM 3.5inch (6 disk)
6) Power Supply
Corsair CS550W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
So will 16Gb enough or i need 64gb of ecc ram???
