So I made a thread like 45 days ago about how to set up the storage for this PC. I've decided for 6-8 WD Red 3TB drives, either just seperately or RAID 5 if needed. This is for a 20 camera 2MP (1080p).
Budget: 4000$, preferably under 3000$
Before choosing any other parts, I want to choose which processor/mobo combo to go with
- Xeon E5 1650 650$ + SUPERMICRO X9SRE-3F mobo 430$ + Kingston DDR3 1333 ECC unbuffered RAM (130$)
I want stuff that lasts... This has to last like 10 years. Noise-wise, silence is not needed, however, considering it is an office environment, it can't be like a reference 6950 fan at 100%.
Case: No Idea... Something of good quality and enough airflow (100~200$?)
PSU: should I go with server PSUs? I also like the Kingwin LZP-550 if I'm going with standar PSUs... pricey for what is it though (200$)
HSF + fans: I'm guessing a tradition aircooler is best? Noctua D14 style? For fans perhaps Noctua or Delta fans? what kind lasts long? (100$)
SSD: I'm thinking Samsung 830 256GB because of it's documented longevity (240$)
Windows 7 Pro - 150$
6 x 3TB WD Reds - 1150$
idk if I'm over my head with this one but I'm sure going to have fun!
So far that is about 3200$. Seems good!
