Hi All,
I am heading down the TrueNAS Scale rabbit hole :) ......
Currently run a QNAP TR563 setup with an expansion enclosure but keep on maxing it out.
I have been experimenting with Docker running, Home Assistant, MQTT, NODE-RED & few other apps,
also have a large PLEX libarary, photos & home videos.
Time to move to something bigger & better.
Setup is going to be a
Intel S2600CP Dual LGA2011 Motherboard with 2x E5-2620V2 32GB RAM
2 x 1TB SSD install drives
8 x 8TB Seagate RED NAS HDD
2 x IT Mode LSI 8 Port SATA cards
16 x Bay Server case
My question is, is 2 x 1TB SSD's overkill for the installation drives, I have searched the community & haven't found recommendations for this.
I want to run 2 x drives so there is redundancy?
Can you expand the ZFS drive as I have 4 drives in the current NAS that have data on them that needs to be moved to the TrueNAS setup before I can move the drives?
Thanks for your help
Matt
