Hi everyone. I'm not new to FreeNAS, but my last FreeNAS box was pretty old. So my main question is if there is anything that sounds like an issue with this build (hardware) and software configuration choices.
I dont have the exact specs, but here it goes:
1x Intel Core i3-2120T Sandy Bridge 2.6GHz
1x ASRock H67M-GE (B3)
16 GB DDR3 - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series
2x Rosewill RC-400 Networking LAN (10/ 100/ 1000Mbps)
3x Barracuda 3TB 7200RPM Seagate - ST3000DM001
- URL to product description: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=22-148-844
1x Mushkin Enhanced Chronos MKNSSDCR60GB 2.5" 60GB SATA III Asynchronous MLC (SSD)
-For OS of course
I plan on using raidz to take advantage of the ZFS.
Is there any problem using these drives? I am hearing things about TLER being good in NAS systems, but it doesn't matter if I use RAIDZ right? The raid configuration should take care of any corruptions?
Also, anyone familiar with the automated SMART email notification? I'm wondering if I will know about any data corruption and if FreeNAS was able to recover from it.
Thanks for any advice / answers to my questions!
