Hi everyone,
I'm putting together a machine and am hoping for it to work out of the box! Use-case is mostly as a backup server (MacBook + web servers), as well as making heavy use of the docker features once they arrive in FreeNAS 11.1.
Here goes:
Amazon list: https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/ref=cm_reg_rd-upd?ie=UTF8&id=LD2AU3GUN93Z&type=wishlist
Summary of Amazon list as of today:
Supermicro X11SSM-F motherboard
Intel Xeon E3 1230 v5 processor
1x Crucial 16GB DDR4-2133 ECC Unbuffered (CT16G4WFD8213) - maybe to be expanded in future with same sticks
3x WD Red 2TB WD20EFRX - in RaidZ, won't be storing movie collections so don't need a huge amount of space but may expand with a couple more 2tb drives later
1x DREVO X1 SSD 60GB - boot drive
I already have a 4U case, PSU and CPU cooler that should be suitable. Looking good?
Thanks for any advice.
