Good morning all,
After my research and tests on my current machine via VmWare for the virtualization of a successful DS918 with the latest update, and plex on windows 10.
My project aims to achieve a high-performance and scalable NAS over time, which can ensure:
- Minimum 2 4K HDR transcoding simultaneously on the local network.
- Network storage space for the whole family.
- virtualization tool as part of my system administrator training.
Total of the order 630 €
Hardware:
CPU: Intel core I3 9100F ==> I3 8100
CM: Asus prime B365M-K
RAM: DDR4 G. Skill Aegis, 8 GB (2 x 4 GB), 2400 MHz, CAS 15
HDD: To begin with RAID 5 of 3 Seagate IronWolf Pro disks, 2 TB.
Case: I fell for this one: Fractal Design Node 804, Black
I already have a LEPA 450watt power supply.
The ratio: price / performance / energy is consistent compared to what synology offers because a DS918 is 600 € without hard drives.
I would like to know which Xpenology will be the best performing and the most compatible for my project?
- DS918 +
- DS3617XS
Edit : Modification of the title of the topic following the discussion, passage from I9100F to I3 8100
