Hello,

I currently have two servers with HA proxmox, the first a lenovo m90q gen3 64gb ddr5 ram, 1tb m2 and another 256gb m2.

The second server is a lenovo m90q gen2, ddr4 64gb, m2 1tb and m2 256gb

The first server is connected to a 5-disk icyBox IB-3805-C31 USB box.

On the first server I have now gone from OMV to UnRaid, installed from proxmox(trial version)

I'm looking at how to replace the disk box with something similar (5-6 disk box) but with a more reliable protocol such as SATA, SAS or similar,But this is not completely cheap nor are there many options, so I am considering selling this server2 and USB disk box and installing a Jonsbo N3.

So, I'm considering building an N3, and deciding which processor, motherboard, power supply, ram memory, etc. I should build.

I would like to have a 2.5G wired connection, I have a WD BLACK NVME SN850X 1TB that I will use, I also have some DDR4 and DDR5 modules but they are SODIMM, difficult to use...

The idea is to use UnRaid, HomeAssistant, several dockers, several VMs on it, even in the future put jellyfin.

I have reviewed second-hand 12500 and 13500 processors, but there are few for sale and they are still a little expensive, I look day by day.

Thank you first of all.
