Hi there,
I just built my first Truenas Scale NAS. Configuration is below:
Dell Precision T7500 workstation
- 1x Intel Xeon E5620 4 cores/8 threads processor
- 48Gb DDR3 ECC RAM (Samsung 3 x 16Gb)
- Dell H310 controller flashed to IT mode
- 6 x 8Tb WD Ultrastar DC HC320 in Z2 config
- 32Gb Verbatim USB-stick as boot drive on internal USB
Capacity, based on 85% usage will be approx. 25Tb.
What I like about this machine is that it is very quiet.
It will be used for home/small business storage and Time Machine back-ups.
Any feedback on the config? Are the drives suitable for NAS use?
