So here is the deal. Ive got a server 2016 running with stablebit drive pool and ssd optimizer. Love it. Works great for my needs.
It has the following on the onboard....
O/S - 128gb ssd
SSD Cache - 512gb SSD
Drivepool - 3x2tb wd black
Drivepool - 2x2tb wd black
I bought 2x ...6x2.5 bay hotswap kits and need a controller to run them (12 ports here). Looking for recommendations as i know nothing on this end.
I was going to put these bays in a different machine and build a freenas box but instead add to my current storage.
I was going to buy a Adaptec ASR-71605 and throw it in but everyone on freenas says stay Lsi ...adaptec wont pass to o/s right or something like that.
Lemme know your thoughts please
