TrueNas+ pfsense and HA on Celeron G3930

Hello!

 

I'm planning on building a small server with TrueNAS as the host with pfsense VM, and Home Assistant, Unifi controller containers.

 

Initially setup:

Storage: 2x 2TB HDD in JBOD or ZFS1


Home Assistant will function as a DVR with 12 IP CCTV's with 1080 20fps H265+ streams.

 

 

Possible upgrade:


RAM: 16GB - is this overkill?
 

Unifi Controller to manage around 6 Unifi AC Mesh's


pfsense will only serve DHCP and routing. Regular clients will be around 30-40, while 150 at max. Will probably setup 2 VLANS - 1 for CCTVs, another for WiFi.

 

 

 

Feels like a little bit to much for a lowly 2c/2t chip. If this isn't enough, should a G4560 2c/4t work?

That is not gonna happen without hardware encoder support and relatively recent graphics card. I am not even sure if HA actually supports HW encoding/decoding either.

QuickSync counts, right?

Encoding + GPU... I'm guessing a 1050 won't be enough since i have at least 12 streams?

Doesn't it just dump the received stream to disk without processing? Shouldn't need encoding, the stream's already encoded...

This is what I thought. Except for viewing maybe.
