Hi

I am intending to convert a z68 intel system from 2011 into a unraid server. 

Going through manufacture specification, I realize I have sata w 6gb/s and 3gb/s

 

How do i plan out what interface to use for what type of drive? 

 

If my current plan of building the unraid server through

 

1st phase 

3TB Storage Hdd and 70GB cache Sdd

 

2nd phase

+ 3TB Parity Hdd and 3TB Storage Hdd

 

3rd phase

+ N numbers of storage hdd < 3TB

 

I also intent to purchase some Chinese pcie to sata card to add more hdd in 3rd phase. 

 

Any additional advice such as no point of building this? E.g old hardware issue? Will be helpful. 

 

Thanks.
