Hey Lemmies,

I’m planning to build my own NAS/Server. Because it has been a while since I last build a computer from scratch, I was wondering if you people could tell me if my setup is sufficient for what I’m planning to do with it.

This is the hardware I’m planning to buy:

  • Case: SilverStone SST-SG13WB - Sugo Mini-ITX

  • Motherboard: ASRock J5040-ITX Mini-ITX Mainboard with Intel Quad-Core J5040ASRock J5040-ITX Mini-ITX

  • OS SSD: Crucial P3 Plus 500GB M.2 PCIe Gen3 NVMe + glotrends M.2 NVMe PCIe x16 Adapter

  • Storage: 2 x Seagate IronWolf 4 TB, NAS HDD, 3.5 Zoll, 5400 U/Min, CMR, 64 MB Cache, SATA 6 GB/s, Expandable to 16TB or more

  • Power: be quiet! System Power 9 ATX PC 400W

  • RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 XMP 2,0

I want as a minimum a capable NAS for media streaming with Transcoding for 1080p in good quality and Backup/Storage of Data in a RAID setup for data security. On top of that a few services like PiHole, Home Assistant etc. would be nice.

Is this hardware sufficient or am I missing something? Can I expect good media streaming?

Thanks!

I just built a Server almost using the same parts. Its the ASRock J5040 board, 16gb ram (yes it works) a 500gb m.2 as system using a PCI adapter , 2x4tb ironwolf as ZFS mirror pool, 350 W power supply all in the node 304 fractal case for 550 euro.

Runs proxmox as hypervisor for VM or Container. As example LXC running container for motioneye, jellyfin, pyload with openvpn and syncthing.
