Hello Unraid Community, I'm planning to build my first Unraid Server. Never built a PC before, so I'm hoping to get your thoughts on this configuration. I currently self host a bunch of stuff on Kubernetes in Google Cloud, but I want to switch to a local setup since it's getting too expensive. Requirements: Storage for photos, videos and books Running a bunch of Docker containers: Jellyfin, PhotoPrism, Vaultwarden, Git Server, IntelliJ/VSCode Remote Code Server, RSS Reader, Wiki, Home assistant, Sonarr/Radarr/Jackett/etc I have some homebrew applications that I want to run as cron jobs using containers Virtual machines: I usually have headless VMs running Debian, Arch and NixOS for testing and packaging I don't have a Windows VM, but I would like to have room to be able to run one in the future. No gaming needs though. Time machine and bootable backups for macOS machines Build: CPU: Intel Alder Lake Core i5-12600K Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S chromax.Black, 120mm CPU Cooler Motherboard: ASUS Prime Z690M-Plus microATX Motherboard Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB C16 Case: Fractal Design Noe 804 MicroATX Case PSU: EVGA Supernova 750G+, 80 Plus Gold Storage: Cache: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB Docker/VM: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB Array: Seagate Ironwolf NAS 8TB 7200 RPM HDD x 3 (2 + 1 x Parity) Seagate Ironwolf NAS 4TB 5900 RPM HDD x 1 (reusing) Just planning to use the iGPU for Jellyfin, might buy a cheap GPU in the future for the Windows VM if prices go down further. I'm aware Unraid has some stability issues with Alder Lake - so I might just use software encoding for Jellyfin till those issues are resolved. Do this build look okay? Are there any pitfalls that I need to be aware of? Would really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks so much!
