Hi All,
I'm looking for a low power, quiet 1U case to run a small 3TB NAS serving NFS. I have the 3 TB drive, so I need a case and a motherboard. It will only be using NFS, since I will be using it as a Vmware replication datastore. I would probably run Unraid on it(single disk, no parity), Debian, or if it is a NAS device already that would be fine if it already supports nfs. The key here is that it supports NFS, is quiet, low power, and supports a 3tb drive. I would also look into a single drive NAS enclosure, since I could probably figure out how to wall mount that. Open to suggestions. Looking to spend up to $100 and buying something used off of ebay is preferred. I have a used Buffalo Linkstation on the way, but that looks like a lot of work to get it able to serve NFS. Let me know your ideas. Thanks!
