Hi All,
I have been looking onto this project for a while but always end up putting it off :-(. I now have a nice new TV with DLNA and I now wish to build a freeNAS box that will be:
* as low powered as possible (vs performance)
* Support 6x Sata disks
* Support 2/3TB drives - from what I have read - only some chipsets support this (c7)
* LOM support as I will not have a monitor attached if all goes wrong ;)
Even though the Atom's are great I don't think it will be able to hack the performance of running he nas and sabNZB which i hope to have installed in the future on this box. So I have been looking at the low powered I3 2100T.
Your thoughts are appreciated .
