Hello guys, i have been visiting this forum for the last 6 months and decided to try my luck with Freenas. I am from Montenegro (no problem if you don't know where it is :)) I have some experience in IT so i am not a complete noob. Joeshmuck's posts made me go for AMD build :)
Specs:
Asus M5A78L-M USB3
Kingston 16BG (4x4GB)*
AMD FX4300 3.8GHz
WD Red 5x3TB (raidz1, it will be raidz2 soon)
Thermaltake Kandalf (i have it since 2008.)
Thermaltake Smart SE 630W SPS-630M
APC UPS
It does it's job. This was a test build so i did not put my important files there, just played arround with services and media. I will do that as soon as I set up raidz2. I did not have any problem with Realtek NIC but i am not a heavy user.
*Initial configuration was made with Non-ECC Kingston because it was so hard/expensive to get ECC here.
I have saved some money for ECC but i am not sure which modules will work on this board. I have done forum/google research but without luck (i need at least 4x4GB modules). I have to be sure that specific modules will work because shipping to my country is very expensive and it has to be compatible out of the box. This noob will appreciate any help/suggestion. Thanks, looking forward to participating in future forum discussions:)
