Hi Guys.

 

I had a spin with UnRaid a few years ago. I did not have the best of times with it but that could have been down to my hardware. Anyway I am in the process or building a 14TB box using proper and correct server based components.

 

I just want to see if things have moved on and if UnRaid is the product for me. I am looking at FreeNas as well. My setup will used this thus:

 

2TB needed for VMware ESXi datastore and would like to use iSCSI rather than NFS. - Is this possible?

 

The rest of the storage space to be used for movies, pictures, backups for the VM's

 

Are there any streaming plugsins that XBMC or Plex?

 

Any DLNA support?

 

Will post any others as i find them.

 

Thanks in advance.
