Hello, I'm currently in the process of building a new storage system to replace my current ageing windows solution, and hopefully you guys can give me some input as to what hardware to get. Please keep in mind that my wallet isn't exactly fat, some of these I already had or got for a good price.

What I'm missing:
What I have already:
- Lian-Li PC-Q25B
- 7x Western Digital RE4 2TB (WD2003FYYS)
- Asus H87I-Plus LGA 1150
- StarTech USB A Female to USB Motherboard 4 Pin Header F/F
- Patriot Supersonic Boost XT 8GB
- Intel Gigabit ET2 Quad Port Server Adapter
What I'm missing:
- RAM - 16gb, but not sure about ECC/reg/buffered/unbuffered
- CPU - Something with AES-NI so I could utilize full disk encryption without taking a huge performance hit
