Hello all. I am building a file server. I just ordered the parts yesterday. I'll be updating this thread with the build once it's all done. Here's the list of parts for it:

The case I'll be using is the Fractal Design Core 1000. I'll be using a spare power supply to power it.

Any particular reason that you picked AMD over Intel for the CPU? Just curious.

Cost. That's really about it. Though, the Celeron isn't that much more expensive.

I've been wanting to build a file server to backup files from my rig, and if possible, store my entire iTunes library on it and stream it to my rig.
