Sanity check before I dive in


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I am looking at purchasing the following items for an Unraid build to replace my QNAP device.  I think I have everything covered but would like to check I haven't overlooked anything and that the hardware chosen will work well with Unraid.

 

Case: 4U 24x 6Gb/s SATA / SAS

PSU: Corsair HW1200

CPU: TR 2920x

Mobo: Aorus X399 Pro

Cooler: Wraith Ripper

RAM: 128GB of Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16) DDR4 3200 MHz C16 XMP 2.0

HBA: Broadcom SAS 9305-24i

Cache: 2x M.2 NVME 1TB SSD

Parity: 2x WD 8TB (Drives to be removed from WD Essentials external units)

Storage: 4x WD 8TB as above + 8x WD RED 4TB NAS removed from the QNAP + 6x 2TB Seagate for Specific VM use

Misc: AMD RX570 8GB for VM use, Nvidia 1060 6GB for Plex use.

 

The system will be used for storage, Plex, Various VM's and Dockers.

 

Anything that I have missed or need to be concerned about?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Andy
