Hi readers,
What would be the best OS software to run a multifunctional media/fileserver PC?
Files to manage? Photo's, music and movies.
I want to be able to use/switch to Win 10 if possible (i can put W10 on a seperate disk and boot from there, if need be).
Maybe use Plex for media streaming?
The hardware gives you some idea to start;
Mobo= Asus Sage 10GB/s lan with 7x PCIe x16 slots
CPU= Intel 7900X watercooled
SSD= 1TB NVME boot disk
Video= AMD Vega 64 watercooled
PSU= EVGA 1600 Watt
CASE= Coolermaster HAF-X
2 dedicated Raid cards Adaptec 81605ZQ + 72405
DRIVES=
16x 4TB WD FYYS
8x 1TB WD1000DHTZ
8x 500GB SSD
PS a lot of the above was purchased at bottom price after the cryptocurrency mining end. Yeeej!
But my main question; should I install;
Linux (Mint)
Unraid
FreeNAS
...
?
Thanks in advance!
