eric.frederich Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I have UNRAID running on some older PC hardware. It's to the point I'm afraid to turn it off because I'm not sure it'll turn back on. I'd like to move my unraid to a more stable solution. I'm looking at re-doing my home networking and buying a proper rack (patch panel, UniFi stuff... USG, cloud key, 16 port switch, NVR, cameras, etc) I just saw on amazon for $268.11 "Premium Dell PowerEdge R610 Server 2x 3.33Ghz X5680 6C 48GB (Certified Refurbished)". I was thinking this is cheaper than the $365 NVR and is more powerful. Would love to move my UNRAID to this thing, then I could run both the NVR and Plex on it. Unfortunately it only supports 2.5" drives. Any idea if there is other used hardware out there similar to this but supports 3.5" drives? I have 3x 8TB drives. Basically, I'm asking where is a sweet spot right now in late 2018 to find a rack server supporting 3.5" drives to run unRAID on? Quote Link to comment
