As patrick mentioned, more specs would help. I did want to chime in to say I probably wouldn't bother with raid 5/6. With 2T+ drives being pretty cheap now, I'd just do a RAID 1 or RAID 10. A good RAID card to do raid 5/6 would probably cost you as much as the extra drives in RAID 1 would, and 5/6 is a bigger pain to work with. You'll get better read speeds from RAID 1 too...Hello,

* Gmod gameserver
* NAS (10TB + Raid 5-6? )
* other dick around VMs
* testing VMs
* Cloud storage
I read "cloud storage" as owncloud or something similar. You are probably right.I wasn't sure what 'cloud storage' meant ? If you want to use something like Amazon S3 or dropbox, you can do that with pretty much anything....
I think that would cost over 300 euro for one of those though.get a dell precision workstation t7910 or t6910
