Hello everyone,
I am new to OMV and I want to switch to an DIYnas, coming from a QNAP nas.
The case and the hardware should house 8+ harddrives for network shares with 8+ computers and 12+ members and should be powerful enough for 1080p+ video transcoding to one tv.
Not quite sure if I should buy new stuff or reuse old spare parts. Here is a quick listing of... capable spare parts of mine:
AMD Ryzen 3 1200 but no mainboard for it right now
Intel Core i5 3330 with Asrock Z77 Extreme4
Intel Core i5 3570k with Asrock Z77 Extreme4
32GB DDR4 RAM and loads of DDR3 RAM, 1333+ MHz
No HBA or Raid card and no network card
450-650w 80+ gold power supplies
no case (yet)
Does anyone see a good combination, maybe with the ryzen 3? Or should I buy brandnew?
Is the chipset integrated sata controller "enough" for a software raid or better buy a hba controller (and which one)?
Is it possible to span software raid between onboard controller and pcie hba?
That is a lot of... questions. I know that these questions have already been answered somewhere sometime but I can't find the answers so I have to ask again... sorry for the inconvenience. I hope that you guys can help me out.
Kind regards
Palulukas
