Well hello everyone,
After searching for countless weeks, I have finally found my software based solution to run a Raid server as my main OS. I want to create a dedicated raid/work/gaming PC in one box. So basically have unRAID as my main OS and Windows 10 through a VM.
Here are my parts thus far, (Take note I purchased these since they were on sale not really intended for this project)
CPU: Intel i5-6600k
Motherboard: Gigabyte z170m-d3h
Ram: Patriot Signature Line 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory
PSU: Corsair CX600
Case: Corsair 750D
SSD: 2 X 500 Samsung
HDD: 3 X 3TB WD Red
I just need to know what parts will not work for this build setup. On the windows side, I plan on gaming but I mostly do graphic design and photo/video editing. What should I add etc? any help would be appreciated. Also, if you don't think this is a good enough system I will sell it or give it to my uncle though he will never use most of the features especially overclocking.
I am new to unRAID and I know it doesn't require a lot to run, but my Windows 10 system requires quite a bit for what I do.
