Hello
Looking for recommendations
I have a standard desktop amd quad core CPU, currently as my FreeNAS box
Looking to move everything to a Dell 2970. More RAM better performance ?
Questions:
The Dell server will have 2.5" hard drives, my current hard drives are 3.5, so all data will have to be copied.
Should I use the on board raid on the dell server ?
Creating VM's still not a good idea ?
Best practice for doing this ? Back up old box ? Restore to new box ?
Old box is on USB stick
Everything works great except I could not get PLEX to work, and network speeds are bad for data transfer, streaming is always good. CAT 6 throughout with gig switches. Switch to Intel NIC ?
Looking for advice Thanks !
