Hi all.
I've been planning to build a first solid NAS for a while now, right now I have a raspberry PI with an external HDD running some rsync :p.
I've read cyberjock's guide and hardware recommendations and have picked a pretty standard build.
Would you guys mind looking over it to make sure the parts are all good? Thx
Server will mainly be used for Plex (maximum of 2 transcodes) and Subsonic/Couchpotato/Sickbeard.
Case: Fractal Node 304
Mobo/CPU: ASRock C2750D4I
Every review I ran into said the C2750D4I is necessary if u require 2 Plex streams, as the C2550D4I won't be able to handle it. Do you guys agree?
RAM: Crucial CT2KIT102472BD1608B 16GB (2x8 GB)
PSU: Seasonic G-450
Is the 450W necessary? Or will 350 be enough?
Storage: 6x WD Red 3TB. Plan on running Raidz2, as recommended here.
Boot Device: Integral 8GB Fusion USB 3.0
Total comes up at about 1.6K around here.
Thanks!
