Hello,
I'm recycling a HP N40L with 4x 3TB drives, 8GB of RAM and a spare SSD (64GB).
I plan to use it for home storage server. I don't plan to use dedup, but I kinda would like to have the benefits of ZFS (self-healing FS/resiliency//compression). I've read that 8GB is the bare minimum for FreeNAS + ZFS, will this configuration allow me to run other components (like plex media server/transmission) and cifs (I don't expect a high BW through cifs) or is this too short ?
Should I go to something else?
Thank you in advance.
