Main purpose of the machine is to run TrueNAS/OpenMediaVault to self-host the following things:
- PhotoPrism (google photos-like gallery indexing server) - multiple instances may be required for multiple users
- Something to sync my phone's photos (like syncthing)
- Plex (No transcoding)
- Password manager
- Calendar and contacts manager and other productivity tools
- And some SMB shares for family members to dump their data
I already have a few parts:
- Ryzen 5 3600
- Noctua NH-U12S
- 250GB NVME gen3 SSD (Crucial P2)
- 2x8GB Crucial Ballistix 3600MHz C16
- A few hard disks ( a couple 6 TB drives for now, might add a few and create a ZFS pool later as budget permits and I find good deals)
- Case (Cooler Master CM Storm Scout 2 Advanced)
- A few Noctua fans
Namely,
- Motherboard (preferably with 6 or 8 SATA 6gb/s ports and 4 RAM Slots)
- PSU (reliable and efficient preferred - may not be adding any GPU to the build for now)
I can either,
buy a new board for the Server or
use that one and get one for the 3200G which that PC has.
Any deals/marketplace links are welcome as well.
