Hello everyone!

 

I have not done a build for many years. Also this will be my first nas and unraid.

Could you pleace rate this build? https://se.pcpartpicker.com/list/HvPQmk

 

I have several 2TBs and 4TBs in an older computer that I vill be moving to this one.

It is already over my init budget but everything is arguable.

 

Cheers

Hello,

it is difficult to evaluate the build not knowing what you plan to do with it.

 

If it is for a simple NAS, that's way overkill.

If you plan for some dockers, probably overkill too.

 

If you plan for VMs, it would depend, how many of them, to do what exactly, etc.

Agree, I should have given more information.

For now it gonna replace an older standard computer that is just used for: plex, downloading, blue iris, twitch/youtube. 

Might move in home assistant to it.

 

Are there parts in the list that stands out that should be replaced? What parts is overkill? 

 

I'm trying to get a grip around the hardwares these days but it's seems it is to hard for me. I like the builds that they do at the tech builders guru but they are only gaming builds. Can't find any other guides.

If you don't game then you won't need a stand-alone video card.

You also won't need a power hungry processor paired with water cooling (unless you "want" it) and X299 board, or 750W PSU.

What is your plan for 4 NVME cards?

I haven't been keeping up with BlueIris... Isn't it still only working on an Intel iGPU (Quick Sync)?

The processor on your list doesn't come with internal graphics.

Do you run Plex with hardware acceleration enabled?

Asking, since you probably will have no choice but to run BlueIris in a Virtual Machine environment.

Quick Sync is a recommendation not a requirement.

I don't know if I run Plex with hardware acceleration.

 

I like to think that the build is for future project but if I'm gonna be hones that probly never happens.

 

Where can I find guides for a build that suits my needs?
