Budget NAS suggestions - Enquiries - 07-26-2025
Looking to replace an aging home built NAS with something more power efficient.
Current server specs:
Supermicro X9DRL-7F mobo
Dual Xeon CPU E5-2650 v2 @ 2.60GHz
32 GiB DDR3 Multi-bit ECC RAM
1 TB SSD cache drive
8x 10TB WD HDDs (shucked drives) with 2 used for parity, and 6 for storage (60TB)
UnRaid OS
Dockers:
- Sonarr/Radarr/Readarr/SAB+
- Plex
- Roon
- Immich
- Hoarder/Karakeep
- calibre
Looking to replace existing server before it starts to fail.
New build constraints:
UnRaid OS
Intel CPU
40 TB storage minimum
Enough 'oomf' to run the dockers listed above
I'm OK to put together a system, but would prefer purchasing something 'off the shelf'.
Hoping to migrate all media to new server, and use old server for backup only.
I'm in Canada, so need to be able to source parts here.
Thanks for your advice!
