Hi all.
Looking for help as to which CPU/Mobo-combo to buy:
low-power home server running ZFS and snapraid (depending on data criticality), plex (incl. 4K streams) and pfsense.
E3-12xxL V5: (~25W TDP)
MB: X11SSL-CF
X11SSL-CF | Motherboards | Products - Super Micro Computer, Inc.
SAS LSI 3008
Or
E3-12xxL V3: (~25W TDP)
MB: X10SL7-F
Supermicro | Products | Motherboards | Xeon® Boards | X10SL7-F
SAS LSI 2308
The controller connects to a Xcase RM 424 via reverse breakout cables and a HP SAS Expander.
X-Case eXtra Value RM 424 - 24 Hotswap Bays 120mm Fan Wall - Low Noise
Which Combo is preferable?
Have looked a Xeon D-15xx and the are very interesting but also expensive here i DK...
Anything not from within the EU gets slapped with 25% tax and handling fee of ~$25, so what's cheap in US isn't in Denmark, after taxes and whatnot...
Anyway: which combo do you prefer, and should i bite the bullet and go the Xeon D route?
Thanks in advance.
