This is my build thus far, open to feedback. It will be used as a strong work machine to run VMS, read/write loads of data all day long, etc. 

 

Is that SSD necessary if the files will be small, but lots of. Eg, downloading a package and copying to a folder with files sizing 0.5/2.5mbs, but lots of them?

 

Is 650 watts a nice number?

 

Overall thoughts?

You could always get a smaller boot drive, and get a HDD or 2  for the copious amount of reads/writes.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.
