Assuming you have unlimited power and noise tolerance
I would start with a used dell 720xd for $350 and then fill it up with drives. If you need more add jbods
old pc, HBAs, tons of drives, unraid pro license
How fast is fast? SSD fast? 7200RPM HDD fast? Whats your use case? You (generally) get to pick two.
- Massive amounts of Storage
- Fast storage
- Reasonable Budget
Us = the community :) the two I pick is massive amounts of storage and fast storage with budget of $5000
Not for business, just imagine a lot of porn
$2000 - 45 Drives HL15 case, motherboard, etc
$2000 - 6x22 TB WD Red (or whatever size you can get after black friday)
$1000 - 5x4 TB SATA SSD of your choosing
132 TB of HDD storage (raw) + 20TB of SSD storage (raw) delivered over SFP or 10GBe
PCSP has a deal on a 2x 20 core 256gb workstation right now for $800.
1 4tb ssd Rest in HDDs
Profit???
What is massive?
At least 8 inches
sighs
I like it :)
Okay lets say you go the prosumer approach:
1x QNAP QuTS hero TS-h973AX-32G ~ 1300€ each
2x Samsung OEM Datacenter SSD PM9A3 15.36TB, U.2 ~ 1400€ each
3x Toshiba Cloud-Scale Capacity MG10ACA 20TB, SATA 6Gb/s ~ 300€ each
Right at 5k and you get 15TB NVME RAID1 (mirror) and 40TB HDD RAID5 (parity). Without mirror/parity it is 30TB NVME and 60TB HDD raw space.
Thanks :) best answer!
SSD’s are fast and quite. Check my profile posts. I sell Samsung 8TB for good prices.
Don’t leave us hanging! They’re quite what?
They’re quite awesome and quiet. Lol
As many Samsung t5 ssd’s as possible
