Hi guys, I'm in the process of assembling the proper hardware to upgrade my FreeNas server up to reliable / recommended hardware.
I just purchased the following from ebay...
View: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/321538213931?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D321538213931%26_rdc%3D1
It consists of the following:-
Supermicro SuperChassis CSE-836BA Storage chassis
X7DBI+ motherboard w/ 1X E5240 + 8gb RAM
I will buy more ram probably 32gb but I was all set on getting ECC ram. Now this just happens to come with a motherboard, cpu and RAM. What I'm wondering is can I use this hardware and have a reliable system or should I throw those components out, use the chassis and buy a new MB, CPU and RAM ??
Thanks,
Tony.
