- RAM: 32GB
- SSD: nvme Samsung 970 Evo - 500GB
- ASM1166 x6 SATA
- PSU: Corsair 550W CV550 or Corsair CS550M 80 PLUS® Gold
- Case: Nanoxia DEEP SILENCE 4 ANTHRACITE MiniTower
I will use TrueNAS - My PC, Server and Router supports Gigabit speed.
I want to use RAIDZ1 and start with 3 HDD 16TB (Toshiba MG08ACA16T) one for parity and the other two for storing. I plan on the future to add more, i have read that this configuration is recommended up to 5 drives, after that RAIDZ2 is recommended, is that true?
On the server there will only be video files, i want to store my entire Bluray and 4K HDR collection Remuxed.
I will watch TVShows everyday so does that mean that the drives will be stressed constantly?
I will play locally on my Gaming PC but maybe in the future i will set up Plex Server (can i watch them but with no reenncoding through that), i have heard about transcoding but not really sure what that does for 4K HDR.
Also if i set my Plex Server later does that mean that i have to put the files again on the server?
On a final note you guys seem to really stress the power consumption, so how would i go to minimize it considering that i will watch content frommit everyday.
Is this good for what i wannt to achieve?
