File Server OS ?

[Snow-Munki]

Hi,

Hopefully if all goes well, I'll have all my hardware for my new replacement File Server. Currently using WHS but it's showing it's age and runs really slow.

Spec is:

Motherboard - Asus P8H77-I Intel H77 (Socket 1155)
CPU - Intel G620
Memory - Corsair LP Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1600MHz
HDD - 3TB
HDD 4 * 2TB
PSU - Corsair CMPSU-430CXV2UK Builder Series CX430V2
Case - Lian Li PC-Q25B

I was going to go for UNRaid, but not so sure now as it seems fairly complicated.

Would like for it to run addons like:

Plex
Sabnzb
Sickbeard
Servio

Thanks,

thanks, reason i'm swaying away from OS's like freenas is from what I understand, you have to have all the disks setup from the beginning.

I'll only have 3TB to start with whilst I slowly migrate my old 2TB drives a week or two at a time.
