    Couldn't have agreed more!

    Ok, you have a valid point, but I just want to stick with ECC memory, just in case. I think that it is always a nice thing to have since it protects the NAS from potential crashes and accidental changes in data by automatically correcting data errors. Besides, it's not like it add another $100 to the system.
  3. Drifta Masta
    That is exactly why one of the first posts is a suggestion for Backblaze, which I will be using in the future.

    This is the thing however, THIS. ISN'T. FOR. BACKUPS! I have a YouTube channel (work in progress) and want to expand storage for the video editing aspect of it in the future. 1TB of space on my PC isn't gonna be enough for the video files, project files. assets, etc. over a long period of time. So this is basically a VERY miniscule version of what Linus gave Destin, Gavin and Justine. So instead of cramming more and more hard drives into my pc, I build this.

    Yeah but that's the problem, I don't live in the US, so 60% of all online shopping sites I can't use because they don't deliver internationally (Newegg doesn't deliver to my location for example). And even if I did, I still wouldn't buy a used system, especially when dealing with storage and HDDs. And I'm quoting from Sukrit Kumar,

    Ok, so I changed my CPU to a Celeron G4930 (after realizing I don't need such an overkill CPU), does anyone have a suggestion for a motherboard with: ECC Support Onboard video support Micro ATX Size MAX And is inexpensive
  7. Drifta Masta
    I would also take the Athlon, but can't seem to find a motherboard for it

    Ok, so I just learnt about ZFS, and was thinking, how would you use it with RAID 5 or 6? (I think I might go RAID 6 down the line) Would you just install FreeNAS, setup a RAID, then what do I do to include ZFS?
  9. Drifta Masta
    Ok I'll look into ZFS, but now that you said it, because I don't want to use UNraid yet, I think I might use Raid 6 then. Maybe I'll be able to squeeze in an extra drive and bigger chassis (one with 5 bays).
  10. Drifta Masta
    I'm not planning on using this as a backup. Just storage expansion.
  11. Drifta Masta
    I'm going to be using FreeNAS, and I have no idea what ZFS is. Thanks for the Backblaze suggestion!
  12. Drifta Masta
    Oh! I had my merchant filter on amazon. So yes, I am stupid.
  13. Drifta Masta
    Nothing on PCPartpicker or Amazon. And on your first question, mostly just me, maybe my parents back up their photos and junk every few months.
  14. Drifta Masta
    Also, I can't find an Athlon 3000g on the market. (Or am I just stupid?)
  15. Drifta Masta
    Just file storage. I went with that cpu cuz it has integrated graphics and ecc support. Same thing with the motherboard. And what do you mean in the first sentence? Plus, I don't want to have a subscription for anything!
