dandirk Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Well FINALLY after ages and ages of reading this forum I am ordering my first Unraid server parts (thank you tax return)... Most is LimeTech official/supported parts but I just wanted to make sure the PSU will be ok... Starting system will be 3 new 1.5TB drives, when build is done and files from old NAS are copied over I will add the 5 750GB drives from the NAS... This system is being planned to support the UnRaid max config of 14 data, 1 cache drive... As you can see below it looks like Adaptec may be discontinuing the 1430SA, well at least Newegg is... Hope Tom can get a 8 port card supported soon...
