I’m about to build a small budget server with TRUENAS on my office and I would love some advice as to which config is the best in my case.
Its an amd 4650ge pro + 32gb ecc udimm + 1 256gb nvme (bootdrive) + 4 x 1tb ssd sata drives (hoping its a long lasting machine // upgrading only ssds if or when needed).
My goal here is to backup my office documents (I’ll use paperless ngx // around 400 pages per day // 5 users), to store my winserver2022 backups (one Monthly ‘snapshot’ of the OS ~80gb and mostly daily bkups of my accounting manager software ~1.5gb) sync it all with google drive, and run some minor docker containers. Don´t need more than 2tb of space today, really, so I’m kinda not sure what to do: raidz2 2+2 or mirror disks (raid 10).
I don´t need a lot of storage space but I truly need/wish redundancy (and I’d like the best alternative to restore if a disk is damaged/lost).
Can you guys give me some advice, if possible? Thx in advance
EDIT:
While waiting approval to post here, I posted the same on reddit and didn’t see it was replied there. Here’s the reply:
In case thats not best of all, I hope someone could share their thoughts. Thx in advance.
