ByMgRs Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hey all! I am currently in the process of picking parts for my new unraid build and cant decide on cpu/mobo combinations! I plan on using the server for dockers such as plex, crashplan, owncloud and makemkv. I may in the future use the VM feature to run a headless linux box so the CPU must have vt-d and vt-x. I am going to run with skylake and DDR4 as my main rig is haswell-e and I feel I like the upgradability especially since intels next platform is also going to be supported by the lga-1151 socket. I will be running 2 3tb WD red drives for now with a cache ssd with plans to add a couple more reds in the future, I also need at least 1 preferably 2 disc drives. So far I am looking at the following parts, any mixture of cpu and mobo (all links go straight to amazon ): i3-6300 - http://goo.gl/ELI8qX i5 6500 - http://goo.gl/rTLl0q Asus H110M-plus (only has 4 sata ports :| ) - http://goo.gl/cVeuPc Gigabyte GA-H170-HD3 - http://goo.gl/ELEXSa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
