Context: moving from a Dell PowerEdge T20 running Unraid and plan to move it to something bigger with more room for growth.
My current choices are:
Dell PowerEdge R530 ($200) - will require upgrades (double the ram at least and get a 2nd CPU or upgrade 1 and buy a matching 2nd one)
- 1 x E5-2620 v3
- PERC H730
- 16 GB RAM (1 x 16GB stick)
- 2 x 1100W PSU
- Includes sleds for all 8 3.5" slots
Dell PowerEdge T630 ($600)
- 2 x Intel Xeon E5 2660 v3
- PERC H330
- 32 GB RAM (4 x 8GB sticks)
- 2 x 1100W PSU
- 18 x 3.5" chassis
- Seller is including 4 x 3.5" 4TB drives and 3 x 2.5" 600 GB SAS drives with adapters to fit the 3.5" sleds (could use drives since I only have 4 in my T20)
- Includes 7 sleds and 11 blanks
I have a rack with room so I plan to rack mount either one.
