Budget (including currency): 400$ (CAD)

 

Country: Canada

 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Data storage

 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Basically, I plan on building a system that will be able to store weather maps and weather data on two separate 500 GB HDDs, and maybe more down the line (I already have the 2 drives). However, I want the OS to be stored on a separate drive, preferably a SSD. I don't need a case either. It does not need a lot of processing power, so I am comfortable on buying used older hardware from EBay to lower the price. The system will stay on 24/7, except from weekly maintenance (cleaning and verifying that everything is going well). If possible, a CPU with an iGPU would be perfect.


TIA!
