Hey guys. I'm planning to upgrade my current home NAS server. I currently have a rack mount supermicro with hot swapable drives, dual intel processors and ~128gb ram. It's nothing special but i'm running FreeNAS on it and have the following running in jails:
Plex
Radarr
Sonarr
Sabnzbd
Unifi Controller
Minecraft (in a virtualbox VM)
and some other crap that i can't think of.
I currently have ~6 6TB drives raided in a ZFS pool.
Here are some random scratch notes of what I'm thinking:
AMD EPYC based system, 32 or 24 core potentially dual proc (i want to leave room for upgrading these later)
512GB ram minimum
room for ~12 sata drives, i'll start with ~6 8TB drives though (platter drives are fine)
Hot swapable would be preferred
II want to run all of the above software on it, but i'd also like to add a GPU to the system and run some game servers as well (GPU would be for accelerated encoding/decoding and /machine learning stuff that i do... not for the game servers)
I plan on trying Unraid for PCI-e and GPU pass-through... also i'm just more experienced with Linux than FreeBSD
I'm having trouble picking out the parts for all of the above and was hoping that some kind souls on this forum may be able to help. I wish there was a PC part picker for servers like this. I'm also looking for a decent ~30U rack for my server room in the garage. My budget is ~$20k, but i would like to come closer to ~$10k
