iamspartacus 40 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) So I just finished the build for my new "Backup Emby" server which will be housed offsite at my parents house accessible via a 1Gbps Site-to-Site VPN. Specs are as follows: MoBo: ASRock Rack E3C236D21 CPU: Intel i3-6100 RAM: 16GB DDR4 2133 RDIMMs SSDs: 2 x 480GB Intel 730 SSD's for 1GB cache pool HDDs: 8 x 8TB Seagate SMR Drives HBA: IBM M1015 Case: U-NAS NSC-810a PSU: Seasonic SS-300M1U Sitting on top of my server rack replicating data from my main storage server for now until I move this to my parent's house next week.

dcrdev 251 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Nice - I have the same motherboard in my main server. I was contemplating one of the U-Nas cases, but ultimately decided against it due to having heard that airflow was poor. What's your take on it?

I can't speak to what the temps would be with a high powere CPU but my i3-6100 and HDD temps are just fine. Some people swap out the rear fans for Noctua's but since this is a backup server and not my main rig it won't get hit that hard so I shouldn't have an issue.
