I am stoked to get started with unRAID. I use SageTV and have about 13TB of HDD full of blurays. Everything is hooked up to my server through usb hubs. Needless to say, I am in dire need of unRAID.
I am wanting to use 12 drives @7200 RPM for streaming multiple full res blurays at the same time. 1 parity and 1 cache drive.
Here is what I am planning to buy for my storage server, thanks in advance for any feedback:
