November 5, 201510 yr Sup Everyone, After a few months of testing hardware configs, hard drives crapping out, and finding a case I liked; I finally got my unRAID server up. All I can say is this is really a system I have been waiting on for years and I am very happy with it. I thought about going the ESXi route and just making unRAID a virtual machine, but with features like KVM and Docker I don't see a need. The only upgrades I see myself doing anytime soon is maybe upgrading to an i5 or i7 proc, addin more memory for VM's, and a SATA expansion card as the current mobo I am using only has 6 ports which are in in use.
