talmania Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I've been running the following for a LONG time (easily 8+ years) and am looking at doing more (virtualization & conversion, maybe gaming) from my system. Here's what I currently have: Supermicro X8SIL x3470 Xeon 16GB ECC 4220 Norco 20x 3.5" HS 2x MV8's 10TB Parity 10x 3-4TB legacy drives that are getting phased out 5x 10TB drives 2x 512GB Samsung EVO SSD Cache My only real requirement is virtualization support, ability to handle more than 1-2 converting streams at a time and my MOST important is Lights out management (iLO, DRAC name your flavor). My thought was keep the 4220 (upgraded fans & PSU) since I've got the open bays and will be further consolidating legacy drives but everything else is up for replacement. Thanks for any and all suggestions!! Quote Link to comment
