Upgrading from an HP N54L

[sergiup]

Hello folks,

I'm currently running unRAID in an HP N54L with 2x 8GB PC3-10600, 3x WD 12TB (EMAZ and EMFZ), and a 2TB WD Black as cache. I also have SABnzbd, Sonarr and Radarr running. It's all fine, but as always, there's a niggle that I'm going to upgrade and use it to host some more Dockers and maybe some transcoding (though honestly, my streamers just access it via SMB / NFS and do their own thing, but transcoding/Plex would open the window to other options).

I already have an unused ATX PSU and plenty of DDR4 (2x 8GB Crucial 3000MHz), I would be transplanting my existing drives, and maybe swapping in an SSD for cache (I have a spare MX300 750GB).

 

I would prefer to stick to a relatively small box so I was looking at the Node 304 case and an ITX AM4 board (like the ASRock B450 ITX ac, there really aren't many ITX options as far as I can see) to go with a Ryzen 3200G, but I'm starting to feel that ITX is making it a fair bit more expensive than it could be. Can anyone recommend any alternatives that still stay fairly small? Fortunately I don't need a PSU, RAM or drives.

 

Fractal Design Node 304 ~£85 (or in white for ~£72.. but, white!)

ASRock B450 ITX ac ~£112

AMD Ryzen 3 3200G ~£75

Total: £272

 

Thank you all!
