Hi all,
I'm new here, so apologies if this isn't the right place, and I'm asking a dumb question! I'm very new to the FreeNAS world, but I have an old computer lying around and want to turn it into a FreeNAS box. Here are my hardware specs:
- MSI B250M Bazooka mobo
- 16 GB RAM
- Intel i307100 CPU @ 3.9GHz
- 4 x WD Red 4TB Hard drives
- 1 x SilverStone ECS01 LSI 9261-8i SAS/SATA Controller, 8 Ports Internal, PCIE 2.0 x8, RAID 0,1,5,6,10,50,60
My main questions are:
1. How well will FreeNAS play with the Raid Controller? Can this be used to set up a proper ZFS file system?
2. Is using the ZFS file system my best option for data redundancy?
Thanks for any help!
