I have three Hard drives(10tb, 2tb, and a 2tb) in WD my cloud ex4100 that I want to use in a new server build. I already bought most of the components that I will be using for free nas but looking into zfs a little bit more and I am not sure if it is the right choice for me. I want to be able to add drives later on, and it looks like with zfs I should be buying all the wanted drives upfront.
here are the parts I have so far
Supermicro X10SL7-F Motherboard
Intel Xeon E3-1231 v3 CPU
16gb crucial RAM
16gb Samsung DDR3 1.35v-1600 M391B1G73QH0 RAM - coming Soon
Seasonic-550 Power Supply
Antec case
Noctua CPU Cooler
and the three hard drives (10tb, 2tb, and a 2tb)
Would it be smart to go with ZFS?
I plan on using this for media mostly movies and tv shows (plex server), Dashcam video backups, and maybe some photo backups.
