As many have seen in my "File Server over Network" thread. I have decided to rebuild one of my Dell Dimension Desktops from like 8-10 years ago into a Storage/VMHost Server to play with VMs and have back up storage locally over the network to store all my 1GB+ GoPro videos I make from Snowboarding, Mountain biking, and Motocross in. I spend over 5 hours on the videos when I edit them.
The whole reason im doing this, and some have already told me its a waste of time and you can just get a cloud storage thing, but I am specifically doing this because ever since I got into computer building about 5 years ago when I was 14 I have wanted to rebuild a system in one of these cases. I also want a place to store my videos, since my main rig is changing all the time, and it would be shitty to lose all the work in my videos. And last reason is because I want to learn how to do things over network, and play with VMs to expand my knowledge on those too.
Anyways so on to the things you all care about. The Hardware and pictures. I tried to make this build the cheapest possible (and most power efficient/performance) with spending just $250 on main parts like the PSU, memory, CPU, and motherboard, and some cooling fans for the case. Hard drives have not been purchased yet, waiting for next pay day.
Hardware Specs of Server:
Intel Pentium G630 2.7GHZ
Asrock H77M H77 Board(to do Hardware Raid 1)
PNY 8GB 1600mhz ram
Corsair CX430M Modular Edition PSU
My Vertex 2 90GB SSD for OS
2x Western Digital 2TB Reds in RAID 1 Array
Windows 8 Pro (For Hyper V)
Anyways Pictures will be up in a bit.
**Updated Specs**
