Hi, I have been looking through the forums and documentation for a few days now and came up with a first build based on some of the advice I have read. I have a strict budget for my use case (see below) so some corners have been cut; but I tried to keep it to a minimum.
Budget:
£1000/$1200/€1150 (not including HDDs)
Use Case:
Build:
MotherBoard Supermicro MBD-X11SSH-LN4F-O £256.00 $312.32 € 294.40
CPU Intel Xeon E3-1240 v5 £264.00 $322.08 € 303.60
RAM Kingston Valueram DDR4 2133MHz 2x16GB ECC £158.00 $192.76 € 181.70
Case Logic Case 4U Standard Chassis £84.00 $102.48 € 96.60
Power Seasonic X850 850W 80+ Gold £165.00 $201.30 € 189.75
Total Cost: £927.00 $1,130.94 € 1,066.05

Budget:
£1000/$1200/€1150 (not including HDDs)
Use Case:
- Single office with 20 machines, mostly Windows 10 PCs with a few Macs.
- All connected with a 24 Port Managed Gigabit Switch
- 5TB of existing Data, expecting to grow to 20TB this year
- Mostly users access Microsoft Office Documents, Images and Videos.
- Some users work on 250GB Datasets which are CPU, RAM and READ/WRITE intensive. To prevent bottlenecks, this is copied onto local SSDs at the start of processing, and results are added to the NAS once complete.
- Expected to last 2 -3 years until arrays of SSDs and 10GBe networking are a financial option.
- Support at least 30TB
- At least 2 GBe LAN ports
- Takes advantage of ECC
- Rackmountable
- Support 100TB+
- 4 LAN Ports
- Redundant Power Supply
- Uninterruptible Power Supply (Currently none in Rack)
