Upgrade or Build new?

[SevenEleven]

Hello everyone,

 

I am curious what you guys think about my current build. Its probably about 8 years old now, and has served me very well.

We are going to be a major home renovation in the next year, and I thought I would upgrade my unraid box as well. I will be upgrading my home network at the same time.

 

The server will be/is used for:

Media Storage - Played on a Kodi box

Backup of photos and other digital media

Docker: Sonarr, Radarr, NZBget, PiHole

VM : Home Assistant - This is a recent addition

 

I think that about captures its use. 

 

My question is. Looking at my build, do you guys think I should/can upgrade some pieces, or should I start all over?

 

M/B: Asrock 880GM-LE

CPU: AMD Phenom II X3 705e @ 2500

Memory 6GB

 

Appreciate your input. Thanks

If you're looking to improve performance I would recommend that you get newer hardware (even used) instead of trying to upgrade what you have. There isn't much room for improvement in the phenom
