![]() The three pools in this one system represent the three NAS systems I had before the consolidation. I have even put together some hardware just to test things out a time or two.įor a while I had three systems, all at once, at home but I am making some hardware changes right now and only one NAS is online. I made some mistakes along the way, learned some and I try to share some of those lessons learned experiences here in the forum. This is the 8th FreeNAS unit I have built for home. This one was built in 2018, but I reused the name from a previous build. Insight is more than helpful since I am such a noob here. Can/should I add more RAM when I add more HDDs? I was thinking about starting off with 32GB and upgrading to 64GB later.My intent is to have 3VDEVs of 8 drives each in the pool but with the initial cost of the build it might be a while. Is it better to connect backplanes using the two HBA cards or the reverse breakout cables straight to the motherboard? Initially I am only running with 8 x 8tb Reds.HBA2: SUPERMICRO AOC-USAS2-L8I (cross-flashed to LSI 9211-8i IT) - PURCHASEDīackplane Fans: 3 x 120mm Cooler Master A12025-12CB-3BN-F1 - PURCHASEDĬables: 4 x 50cm LSI SAS SFF-8087, 2 x 19" Molex 79576-3002 SFF-8087 Reverse Breakout - PURCHASED HBA1: SUPERMICRO AOC-USAS2-L8I (cross-flashed to LSI 9211-8i IT) - PURCHASED Vdev1: 8 x 8TB WD80EFAX NAS-HDD (RaidZ2) - PURCHASED RAM: 4 x 16 GB Kingston ECC RDIMM DDR4-2400īoot: 2 x 16GB Sandisk Cruiser Fit 3.0 - PURCHASED PSU: Corsair RMX 1000W CP-9020094-NA - PURCHASED Motherboard: Supermicro X10SRi-F-O - PURCHASED ![]()
