Hello,
I'm getting ready to start my first Freenas build and was hoping to get some input before I pull the trigger on the hardware. I used Cyberjack's sticky on Hardware Recommendations to put together this setup, but I want to double check before I order.
The primary purposes of the server will be for backing up my wife's photography and hosting my media for streaming around the house. I'd like it to support up to three streams, although I don't expect that to be a common occurrence. I would also like the option to be able to run virtual machines in jails in the future.
Below is the shopping list I put together. Will this meet my needs (and allow for some future expansion)? Thanks in advance.
Case: Fractal Design Node 304
Motherboard/CPU: Supermicro Mini ITX A1SAI-2750F-O Eight Core DDR3 1600/1333 MHz Motherboard and CPU Combo
Memory: Supermicro Certified MEM-DR380L-SL02-ES16 Samsung Memory - 8GB DDR3-1600 1.35V 2Rx8 ECC SO-DIMM
Hard Drives: 6 x WD Red 3 TB NAS Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, SATA III, 64 MB Cache - WD30EFRX
Power Supply: Corsair Builder Series CX 430 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS certified Power Suppy
