January 14, 201016 yr My server is running fine and I have no problems but it is getting fuller and I know it day is coming (all old components) I see their is this new RB-1200 server on the home page and it looks like a good price. I don't know a great deal about what makes a good server and what doesn't so I was looking for some imput on this thing. What are the pros and cons compared to their other servers?
January 14, 201016 yr Speedwise there should be little to no difference. It's really just about the number of drives it can hold. With a Lime-Tech certified system you're guaranteed it will work and that it will do so right out of the box. Most of us on here build a frankenbox out of derelict computer parts we have laying around our house, and we have to spend some time getting everything tweaked.
January 14, 201016 yr Author I have a Frakenbox now built from an old antec case and Asus board with no SATA ports and a P4 processor. Currently I have 7 drive in it, 4 - 1.5tb and 3 120gig. I would dump the 120gig's to open up room for more SATA drives. So 12 bays is more then enough to keep me going for a long time, by that time something new will be along....
January 18, 201016 yr Author Can some one give me a quick answer to how more RAM effects UnRaid. Doesn't seem like a real memory hog, but will 2gig -vrs- 1 gig make any difference when serving up Blu-Ray?
