I am thinking about building a FreeNas server. I am look for at least a 5 bay small form factor cases. I would like to boot off a small SSD, looking to put in around four 3 /4 TB drives. Is it possible to build the server without the SSD and HDs for $600? I might want to put Plex on it and be able to do one transcoding on it. I would also like for it to be low power if possible.
I have tried to pick out the components and have given up. I'm about to give up trying and that is why I have come here for help. If I can't build something for around $600, then I may as well just by the Synology DS415+. I really hope someone can help me.
