What do you think?]]> https://serverforum.org/showthread.php?tid=19 Wed, 20 Dec 2017 13:24:55 +0100 https://serverforum.org/showthread.php?tid=19 Hello, 
 
For a new test server I try to find out how much is the difference between both CPUs in power consumption. It is really hard to find any information, I think overall the CPU load should not be so high. Currently installed is an Intel I3-7100 my server with 64 GB ram. But now I need more RAM and therefore I need to change the CPU and Motherboard. Most important point is the power consumption. Could anyone help on my question? 
 
Current Setup / consumption:  
1.   Intel I3-7100
2.   Asrock B250 Pro 4
3.   4x16 GB DDR4 Crucial 2400
4.   2x Seagate 8TB Ironwolf 27/7 HDD
5.   1x Samsung 850 Evo 500 GB 
6.   27/7 Server Power Supply Gold 350 Watt]]> Hello,

In Ebay I am looking for an Intel Xeon 2630L V4 for my new home server ESCI or Hyper-V virtualisation project. I have only found one item for 670€ and another one for 170€. The seller says the processor is working 100% with the most DIY desktop motherboards the only exception is with branded servers (“TESTED 100% GUARANTEED WORKING WITH WARRANTY”).
 
Has anyone experiences with ES samples? Will the processor work as the original one?
 
Thanks in advanced]]>

I am currently in the process of setting up a new home server, I am not entirely in agreement with the hardware selection.

At the time I was a Synology DS214 +, which is equipped with 2 WD RED 4TB. The disks are both currently running as a data storage and are not mirrored. The disk is currently used as 80% Plex Mediaserver, 10% music streaming and another 10% data collection. A few months ago I start to digitize my Blu-Ray collection, currently I have arround 500 movies on the NAS-Server and I tend to run out of space. In other words, the two 4TB HDDs are completely full and needs to expand or replaced.

However I plan to build a small home server.

Must Haves:
Minimum 6 S-ATA interfaces, enough power to transcode everythink. 

My idea: 

• CPU: Core I3 7100T
  
• CPU Alternative: Pentium G4500T
  
• CPU cooler: EKL Alpenföhn Silvretta
  
• Mainboard: Asus B150M-A / M.2
  
• Ram: Mushkin 8GB Kit
  
• Case: Fractal Design Node 304
  
• Power supply: be quiet! Pure Power 9 300W
  
• SSD: SanDisk Plus 120GB for operating system
  
• Hard Drive: 2x Seagate Archive HDD v2 8TB
  

The bottom line without hard drives is 410 €, with the Intel Pentium 370 €.

How do you find the setup? Do you have any improvements? Especially with the CPU and the hard drives, I'm not sure. The two WD Red will be moved to the new server. Software is to be used either Windows Server or FreeNAS. But I prefer Windows simply better.

Many thanks to all who look at the whole and express their opinion!]]>
