Hi All,
I am new to Xpenology. Was running a HP N36L with 4x2TB Seagate drivers as a home server with Windows Server 2008 R2. However, the HDDs are going to die soon. Therefore, I have bought two 8TB HDDs to build another server. But I heard of HP N36L does not support large HDDs. Therefore, I am considering using an old machine (collecting dust) around the house to build a Xpenology box to replace the home server. The configuration of the old machine is Core 2 Duo E7500 (maybe E7600, but not sure. No significant difference here), 8GB memory, Gigabyte X38-DQ6 mobo, AMD Raiden 4550 graphic card. I wandering this configuration is good enough for epenology and what DSM loader I should go with.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
Chris
Is Core 2 Duo E7500 good for Xpenology
