WD Red's? Raid 6?

own cloud would get very complicated with tunneling NICs to the VM for the average user...

and there is a chance that BitTorrent services will get stomped by your ISP

just food for thought

True, but only if your ISP is a douche who thinks all BT protocol is pirated material

Not mine! TekSavvy, they are a small family owned business (The largest "independent" ISP in Canada).

Problem is right now that the CRTC (Canadian version of FTC) hasn't regulated pricing for FTTN and FTTH speeds, so the bulk rates for TekSavvy to buy from an incumbent (Bell, Rogers, or Shaw) is ridiculously high for speeds over 100 Mbps. They can't even afford to offer Rogers top package which is 250 Mbps.

Thank you so much for everything you've commented It's been very helpful. I believe I can take it from here with the information given, I have a build log I'm doing of my living room / PC and desk. I will include the raid array setup I do weather it be in the build or separate.

I will mention you guys in that thread if you wish to follow it! I don't see a lot of it getting done any time soon, but it will defiantly get updated as time goes, especially when I get my tax return this year.
