Im quite new on the server stuff, but i saw that these are somewhat cheap, i presume RAID controllers attleast needs to be changed, but i could use advice with the following ebay item, is it worth it etc? It would just be a home nas server for media etc.
That listing shows empty drive bays or drive cages. They’re missing?
I’ll just point you to the documents for the latest Scale release, hardware section and the ZFS Primer. I think most of the needed info will be there. You are on the right track by trying to get server grade gear. Post back questions after you look these links over. There is also a hardware guide on the old forums. A little dated but still very relevant. I’ll try to post that link too
Yes it does not have any caddys with it, but i got it little cheaper than listed so i bought it, and now looking caddys for it to start with. After reading these excelent links, i see that i have a huge learning curve ahead
