JustinAiken Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 My current system has ALMOST enough power to handle everything I use unRaid for (no 6-player game streaming for me ), but I find that enabling crashplan tends to result in a crash after a couple of weeks. I'd like to move from the C2SEE/E5200 to something a bit more modern: - 2-4 cores - Supports >4GB of RAM - ECC or nonECC, I can get new RAM if needed - Low power usage - Runs cool - Not Atom/Celeron slow - At least 4 SATA slots on MB (although MOAR is better!) Any current recommendations? Quote Link to comment

JustinAiken Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 What is the budget though ? Pretty openended; I'll glady drop an extra $100 on the mobo or CPU if it makes it so I don't have to worry about anything for years, but if it's $100 more just for performance that wouldn't be used, I'd rather put it towards more HD's Quote Link to comment
shanehm2 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I would aim then for a i3 or i5 series with a suitable motherboard and 8gb of ram. That would set you back about $200 though and future proof your for years to come. Quote Link to comment
