Hello, I am new to TrueNAS . I have read some documentation. I have listed the hardware I am using below.
Motherboard - ASUS crosshair hero 6 x370 ( updated to latest bios)
CPU - Ryzen 7 2700x ( will upgrade to 3900x)
Ram - 16GB 3000mhz non-ECC ( will upgrade to 64gb ECC later )
PSU - 1050watt gold
Case - Silverstone CS380
For Drives, i need some suggestion
Boot drive for TrueNAS scale - M.2 500GB Nvme ( Currently ) but i am planning to get 2*2.5inch 240gb SSD for redundancy ( I also read somewhere no need of using nvme drive for booting maybe i can later install a virtual OS on it.
Is using dual sdd for boot redundancy worth investing in?
One issue i have recently faced was when i tried installing the true as OS on the drive selection page i am unable to select the Nvme sdd when i try to select it prompt it says u must need to select 1 drive. why did this happen any suggestions, Later to check whether SSD is faulty or not i installed Windows on it and it works fine.
For the storage drive, i have currently bought 2 4Tb Wolfs but i am planning to buy some 10 TB drives as the case only has 8 bays.
I am unsure about the RAID configuration i need to use pls enlighten me about this and is it mandatory to use all similar drives?
