unRAID NAS Build - Europe
#1
Hi,

I'm looking into building my own NAS with unRAID. If been reading this forum here for quite some time now and I also studied their Wiki.

Problem is that I live in Europe (Austria) and therefore can't order from Newegg and I don't know any other cheap retailer. So I'll go with Amazon.de

What I would fancy so far:
- HDDs: Western Digital WD20EARS Caviar Green 2TB (8.9 cm, 5400rpm, 8.9ms, 64MB Cache, SATA) - EUR 86 / piece
- Case: Xigmatek ATX Midi oN Asgard - EUR 36
- MOBO: BIOSTAR TA785G3HD - EUR 75
- CPU: AMD SDX140HBGQBOX CPU AMD AM3 Sempron 140 - EUR 36
- RAM: Kingston ValueRAM KVR1333D3N9K2/4G PC3-1333 Arbeitspeicher 4 GB (Non-ECC, 1333 MHz, CL9, 240-polig, 2 x 2 GB) DDR3-SDRAM Kit - EUR 41
- PSU: Corsair CX PSU 430W - EUR 39
- USB-Stick: Lexar JumpDrive Firefly 4GB - EUR 12

= EUR 239 (HW) + EUR 344 (4 HDDs) = EUR 583

Any pieces missing? (SATA power/data cables, fan,... ?) Anything too good / too bad?

Money is not the real issue but I don't want to spend more than necessary.

I also want to use a few plugins like a torrent client etc. At the moment I want to use it with 4 HDDs but of course I want to have the option to add more drives later.

Help / comments appreciated.

Thx Smile


EDIT: Changed CPU from AMD ADX250OCGMBOX CPU AMD AM3 Athlon II X2 250 Box (2x 3,0 GHz)

4GB could be a bit too much but other than that, I would say it's a fine system.
