Just found this awesome request form and wanted to reach out as I am on the search for a DIY NAS.
I want to give Unraid a try and would look for something like this:
- Backup (was thinking about a parity of 18TB and smaller Drives as array)
- Running a plex media server which has at max 2 connections (probably only one at a time for now). Maybe there is transcoding needed here and there, but not regularly
- Having various docker containers (pihole, vpn, paperless ngx, etc.)
- Having a gameserver running , which can be paused when not used
- VMs are not interesteing to me currently, but may would try to play around with them
- Power consumption should be low
- My Network has Cat 7A cables
My biggest trouble is the case and the motherboard/CPU, as I dont have any idea about the performance of them in a server. How much can a modern CPU (also a Celereon CPU like the N5105) take in terms of docker containers/media streaming?
I am really greatful for every response - thanks in advance!
