ziggie216 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Was just handed down a semi-new ThinkStation and been debating if I should migrate UnRAID over. Your thoughts? Current ThinkServer Xeon E3-1220 V2 24GB ECC LSI SATA/SAS RAID Case holds 8x HDD (Using 6 of 8 slots) 2x SSD fitted in a DVD-ROM bay New ThinkStation Xeon E5-1620 V4 64GB ECC Case hold 4x HDD Has 1 available DVD-ROM- bay The E5 core would really help with Plex and allow me to run more VM. The downside of the ThinkStation is the hard drive bays limitation and drives will be connected directly to the motherboard (6x SATA ports) instead of a RAID card. I can't swap the motherboards since Lenovo has these proprietary connections and layout. Quote Link to comment
