Hello, i'm looking to upgrade my 10 years old NAS/server. I already have the HDD and the case. But i have difficulties to chose motherboard, power supply, CPU & RAM.

So far i'm looking for :

  • AMD CPU, +12 threads
  • A bunch of SATA ports, maybe a LSI ? Which one ? And 2 NVME slots for the Motherboard.
  • More than 16GB of ram, IF possible ECC
  • All of this available in western Europe

I'm aiming for a budget between 600€ and 900€ for those 4 components.

Have a nice day :)

That's not a NAS, that's a full-on PC.

What you want for a NAS is a low power CPU, minimal memory, and hot swap capability.

If you're looking more an application server, then that's a different story. In either case, you probably want the lowest end non-APU chip.

My current server is 10 years old. I'm self-hosting since ages. I do know what are my needs.

But I also have stopped being hardware enthusiast. I have no idea of actual good brands, models and price range.

I'm not looking help to know what my needs are but to know what can fulfill them in a non money-throwing way.
