August 26, 20205 yr Usage and implementation: I recently moved from Florida to Denmark and I have about 30 TB of videos and project files. I have been shooting commercials and other video projects for a long time. I will never transcode video as this is for storing project files, assets, and original CinemaDNG / Blackmagic RAW video files. I have been preparing the files/drives remotely and will have them mailed to me next month while keeping the original files in the USA till the migration is complete. 3x 12TB WD (shucked) and 3x 8TB Seagate (shucked) Two of the WD drives will be for parity. More storage will be added over the next year. In a year I will upgrade the CPU + GPU for Windows and Mac VMs. No intent to ever overclock CPU or GPU. This is my 3rd UnRAID build but first for personal use. I will film a video of the build/progress. Parts List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MXvDBZ Future Upgrade: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8JfxXv LSI HBA 8i Case: Fractal Design Node 804 Great upgrade path for storage (10 HDD) Doesn’t look like a server/computer Quiet Motherboard: Gigabyte B450 Aorus mATX AM4 Upgrade path 6x SATA PCI-E 16x for future GPU PCI-E 16x (4x pins) for LSI 8i CPU: AMD Athlon 3000G Integrated GPU Cheap Low power RAM: Corsair VENGEANCE LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) 3600MHz C18 I will upgrade the RAM to 32GB if I decide to add a ZFS pool for editing.
September 7, 20205 yr Welcome (back?) to Denmark! Your system looks neat! I've looked at the same case as well. But I haven't decided on a case yet, I still use my old Antec case.
