I’m looking to build my first NAS. I am somewhat techy, just enough to know I’m punching above my weight a little on this. I’m building this primarily as a PLEX media server, it will also run Sonarr/Radarr/etc and some torrenting. I already have 40+TB of media, so I need lots of storage, and we have about eight close friends/families that access Plex often.
I thought about a pre-built option, but I think to futureproof and maximize bang for buck, DIY is the best option. The build I’m thinking:
Case - Jonsbo N5
Motherboard - i3-N305
Processor - Intel i5 1350
RAM - TEAMGROUP Elite DDR5 32GB (2x16GB) 5600Mhz
Fans - Noctura NF-P12
Power - Unsure
Other - M.2 to 6 SATA Expansion Adaptor
OS - Unraid
Any help would be appreciated - if you have any recommendations or anything I’m missing? Is this setup overkill? I don't know what I don't know - I am fearful I'll get so far into this and it will not work, and I'll have no idea how to fix it! Thanks!
