Replace or keep?

porterj5 · March 4, 2016

I have an ASUS C60M1-I in my NAS a the moment with 4 4TB WD red drives in it. It works fine for storage and managing the raid but I am think I may replace it. Any suggestions on mini ITX boards? I would like to maybe use it as aN HTPC in addition to just a NAS. I am using the Fractal Design Node 304 case so it needs to be a mini ITX board. Or, if anyone is interested I would consider selling it.

i have personally used the H97M-ITX/ac because of the 5 sata connections.

i do have to say tho, the wireless on this board when running linux is iffy

I wouldn't be using wifi so that would not be a big deal. I do like the 5 sata ports. The ASUS C60M1-I has 6 which I had planned on using another 4tb red that I have to take up the last slot. So it would be 5 4tb reds and one 500gig drive for the OS.
