March 19, 20215 yr Hi, So I'm very new to all of this. but I have some questions and fingered this would be a good place to ask them. My setup is currently a collection of second hand parts, consisting of a intel i5 3470 Gigabyte GA-H16M-MD2 with a Bios update 16GB of DDR3 for Kingston a 120 SSD a 1TB HDD a 2TB HDD i have no redundancy setup Currently just running Freenas. as of next week i'll be making the switch to unraid and running freenes as a VM to handle storage. down the line I'm also wanting to run a windows server as well as a windows 10 VM with a Graphics card past through and a Minecraft server so my questions what upgrades would i need to make this posable how many cores would i need to look at? how much RAM can i Realistically getaway with? would i be able to remote in to the VM with the Graphics card and see any performance from this? (i'm wanting to use it as a backup gaming system to reduce were on other computers on the network)? and in terms of SSD/HDD what would be the ideal layout for basic local redundant storage?
