Celeron D 3.33GHz - Is it adequate?

[musicstar.ca]

Hi Guys,

 

Last week I got unRAID up and running on an old Athlon XP 2500+ computer. Everything looks good so far.

I had a Celeron D 3.33GHz kicking around which should be a bit faster. Will this be adequate for the long run?

 

My end state will be:

 

Antec 900 case

Gigabyte GA-945GCM-S2C mATX LGA775 954GC 1PCI-E16 3PCI SATA2 Video Sound LAN Motherboard (4 SATA ports)

1 GB RAM

Celeron D 3.33GHz

LSI RAID card (4 SATA)

 

1 Samsung 1TB drive (parity)

1 Seagate 750GB (IDE)

2 Hitachi 750GB

 

1 Samsung 1TB drive on hand in case of failures.

 

I'll be buying the 6 drive license next week.

 

Let me know if the CPU will be acceptable.

 

Thanks all,

 

Pedro

All data points at the CPU being the least important component.  I actually underclock/undervolt mine to save energy.

 

So the answer to any modern processor is ... yes, it will be fine.
