Hey,
I have a spare ASRock 330 Atom board with 4gb possible ram laying around (as well as 6 sata ports). I want to build a freenas but I already run a media server in my apartment.
My goal is to get the power usage as low as possible and have a separate space for my backup harddrives. I don't really see myself using this nas as anything more than file backup, so I can't imagine the CPU or RAM will be too stressed.
I haven't bought a case or hard drives for it yet so that's why I am asking.
