I shutdown my NAs to move it to a new UPS and now it won't come back up, no video response at all, no audible alerts, I believe the 5 year MoBO has bit the dust. With that as my assumption, I'm looking into a new MoBo and CPU and would like some suggestions!
I really don't want to spend an arm and a leg, I don't really care about ECC memory (I know it's recommended for FreeNAS) and I don't need a lot of bells any whistles
I want to sat in the ATX\MicroATX form factor, and would like as many PCIe 4x (or better). I currently am running 10 drives, and was planing on adding 5 more but with this expense that wont happen for a bit.
anyways suggestions, the whys or why nots?
just so you know what I was coming from GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-D3H LGA with 16G and a Intel Core i5-3350P, is what I had been running my FreeNas on for the past 3 years
