Hey there,
I am currently looking to get a new home NAS together with the potential to run a very few, lightweight VMs on it as well. I am currently ping-ponging a bit back and forth between what I want and what I need (a xeon-d 1541 would probably/realistically be good enough) but if someone is looking into parting with a motherboard with either of the Xeons, let me know what you'd want for it. If you have ram (32 or 64) that comes along with it / also must go, I'd certainly consider that!
I am unlikely to buy an entire barebones unless it is either a 2u or home-nas chassis with 5+ hdd slots and would not want to pay for components I'd have to toss.
Thanks!
