Now that I have a good paying job again, my summer project is a fileserver that has around 3tb in 2 raid arrays.
I have a case that will hold all of it, but I'm needing a new mobo & cpu.
With that and all those hard drives comes the need for hefty power.
One area I'm weak in builds is power supplies, so any help is appreciated.
The main issue I can see is having enough sata connectors.
There will be one optical drive in the system as well as 10 hard drives.
ASUS P5NT WS LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce Dual PCI-E x 16 ATX Server Motherboard
ASUS EN6200TC256/TD/64M GeForce 6200TC 256MB 64-bit DDR PCI Express x16 Low Profile Video Card
Intel Pentium D 930 Presler 3.0GHz 2 x 2MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Dual Core Processor
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
I can't wait to get this project started. I will start my purchasing at the beginning of June, so this has some time to develop based on how prices fluctuate.
