Hello!
I am not sure is this right place/thread to ask thiskind of thing.. Mods can move this for more suitable place if needed?
I am seeking for a advice for my next build and i am doing research for dually what could sustain 2 x 4K streams at once..
Whatkind of duallys do you have for thiskind of usage? Do you might have any recommendations?
I am not looking TR/AMD system because it dosnt support ECC ram.. and i would like to have ECC ram because Snapraid prefers ECC..
At price/processing power wise i think some older dually would be best option? Or any other ideas?
I am trying to figure out what i would need to get because my older servers just dosnt have enough juice in them for my needs anymore for streaming and transcoding..
I am thinkin about building a reasonable priced server from older server hardware like E5 Xeons, DDR3 ECC maybe 1333MHz ..
I have SAS Expanders, LSi SAS cards, maybe PSU, GPU if needed so pretty much everything else is handled except i just cant figure out whatkind of mobo, ram and cpu i would need for my setup.. ofcourse littlebit overscaled is a great thing so cpus dosnt run 100% all the time..
I have looked parts like
CPU: Dual Xeon E5-2670 2.6GHz to 3.3GHz - SR0KX stepping
Motherboard: Supermicro X9DR3-F
+ i have looked lots of different kind of setups what peoples have in here.. problem is that there is too much different kind of setups.. Not sure what to get and not sure whatkind of system i would even need.. except that 25 000 passmark scores is kind of safe side so to say.. and i would like to build rock solid system what i can leave and forget.. just add more hdds to it..
My needs are:
RAM: atleast 64gigs of ECC ram and needs to be able to scale 128 gigs if needed.. DDR3 1333Mhz should be fine?
CPU: Somekind of setup that could handle 2 x 4K streams via plex + scalable Snapraid + drivepool software + Windows 10 itself..
PCI-E slots: 5 needed.. prolly 4 could do aswell if mobo itself has vga interphace
Ideas? Questions?
If you did read this far.. Thank you for that!
