Rajahal Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Perhaps you have some old parts you would like to repurpose into an unRAID server. Perhaps you want a build that deviates from those detailed above. Perhaps you just want a final confirmation before purchasing parts. All of these are good reasons to create a 'new build' thread. Here's a few guidelines to help us help you: What is your budget? Even if you don't have a strict budget set out, at least give us an idea if you are pinching pennies or splurging on your build. How many drives do you want your server to be able to support and how much capacity do you need? Is expandability important to you? If so, what's your long term goal? Are you interested in running additional apps? If so, which ones? Be specific. Do you want to run green/low power drives or faster 7200 rpm drives? If you don't have a specific need for 7200 rpm drives, then choose green drives. What do you plan to run for hard drives? Do you have any spare parts laying around that you would like to apply towards your build? This includes drives. If you already have parts in mind, please oh pretty please post links to them so that we don't have to look them up. Happy building! - The unRAID Moderators 2 Link to comment
