Hello Everybody,
I hope this will be my last post and I finally will be able to build my own NAS.
Like I mentioned in previous posts I want to create a NAS with about 25 TB of storage for Saving of my many private files.
I researched a lot and finally made a list of my components I intended to use for my NAS.
As I’m not an expert in this it would be nice if somebody could check my config and tell me if I can use all this or if I need something to change…
Before I start listing my components I want to add, that I want to use my NAS as some kind of Storage and to stream files on my PC or Set-Top-Box (I’m the only person who uses it, so there will only be one access to the NAS #Server Workload)
CPU: Intel Pentium G4560
HDD: 6x 8 TB HDD Seagate IronWolf
SSD (for Cache): 2x 250GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO
RAM: 2x Samsung DIMM 32GB, DDR4-2400, CL12-12-17. Reg. ECC
Motherboard: ASRock Rack S236M WS
Case: Fractal Design Node 804
The two most important things I’d like to know if :
P.S.: I want to use FreeNAS and RAID-Z2 (That's why I have a lot of RAM with ECC)
Thanks for your time and your help and have a Nice Christmas time .

The two most important things I’d like to know if :
- My Hardware is able to stream files to other devices (even huge files with about 50Gb)
- All components are compatible with each other (for example if the RAM/CPU is supported by the motherboard)
For example I read that the Motherboard only supports 2133Mhz, but my RAM has 2400Mhz - is this a problem ?)
P.S.: I want to use FreeNAS and RAID-Z2 (That's why I have a lot of RAM with ECC)
