Paul, thank you for clarifying once more. My strategy is to follow this thread and pull the trigger on an unRAID Ryzen server when you announce that the stability issues have been fixed and not a second before that.

That you very much for considering this built and commenting. In terms of money, I rarely spend any, but when I do I want to do it right. Therefore I don't mind cashing out a little extra to get the best brands for this build, but I need your help to keep the sanity level up What do you mean not a quad channel platform? UnRaid? I could go with 16 GB, and maybe even drop to the non-pro4 AB350M motherboard that only supports two ram-blocks, I just don't want to regret this downgrade later on. But then again.. If I go for 32 GB ram and the server maxes out at a 7 GB usage, then I wasted a lot of money. Are you saying that if I get a M.2 port-connected SSD there is a risk that unRaid won't support it as a cache drive? How would I go about checking this in the motherboard manual? I'd rather have it in the M.2 than having it take up a SATA port that I could use with a HDD. Also, its awesome to have such a small and hidden away SSD The Ryzen 1700 wins the passmark divided by TDP game so that's why I'm going with that one. More feedback and criticism is very welcome.

Hey you all, I've been lurking for a year now wanting to build a high quality unRaid server for plex, rtorrent, backups and whatever interesting dockers I find on the forums. I want to build a server that can transcode to at least 3 users simultaneously and take a heavy load on lots of torrents. I'm planning on this build, which is an overkill, but I want to build and forget without having to upgrade in the near future. It is also key that it is as low power consumption as possible: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Sweet_Lou/saved/psPcf7 The prices are danish krone prices that I have converted into US dollars, that is why everything is so expensive. The Ryzen 1700 seems like the perfect candidate, but should I wait until unRaid/ryzen is confirmed 100% stable or is it safe to pull the trigger now? The AB350M is the only AM4 motherboard I could find that supports ECC ram. Have I added too much RAM? And is it fast enough? I also plan to buy this thingie because the case supports 6 HDDs but the mobo only support 3 HDDs when the M.2 is in use: http://www.bj-trading.dk/bjshop/default.asp?pv=89359&pn=Delock&gruppe=I/O-Kort&overgr=Hardware&vare=896176&f=edbp Will that work with full speeds?

Wow it looks neat

Do you have a screenshot?
