mgadbois Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 New to UnRaid. I want to build up a 24 Bay UnRaid server that will be used to house my Plex Media server and media, Backup home PCs to it and runs a few Windows 10/Linux VM or Dockers. Looking for some parts lists that i can go shopping on. No real budget, but don't want to sell a kidney to get what AI need. Tried looking on e-bay for used servers, but got lost in all the jargon. Hoping to get some very newbie help. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment

A 24 drive system (as opposed to a consumer-grade 12-14 drive one) would be a big jump in complexity and likely noise. It wouldn't be advisable to start at that level If you're not an IT-pro. That's probably why there were no other responses to your question. I think it would make more sense to start with a 12-16 drive system pictured in this thread: Edited July 31, 2021 by Lolight Quote Link to comment
