Still trying to figure out the hardware / software for an iSCSI+NFS hybrid NAS:
>HDDs:
I'm settling on the new X24 (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0DCZ6GXGR)
But I'm not sure whether to go all in with 4 drives or go with 2 drives.
Also not entirely sure about the Filesystem I should use, if possible I'd use ZFS in Mirror VDevs which are then striped. "ZRAID10" if you will.
>Optane:
Firm on the 750GB P4800X (https://www.ebay.de/itm/156183154122), I would love to use P5800X (https://www.ebay.de/itm/396417058881) but I'm not paying 10x for 50GB more capacity + PCIe 4 and even if, the 1.6TB version is cheaper per GB (https://www.ebay.de/itm/356727758876).
ZFS would be nice here as well as L2ARC / Metadata devices, if I can't use ZFS I'll just use bcache like I'm doing with my Desktop right now.
>SSDs:
Still on the fence, because of the mainboard / PCIe lanes.
>10G ethernet:
Same as above, still on the fence between the X550-T2 (https://www.ebay.de/itm/166643341272) and the X540-T2 (https://www.ebay.de/itm/196139352813). I think I'll go with the X540-T2 if I can find a cheap mainboard+cpu+ecc kit with a lot of PCIe lanes.
>Mainboard:
If I can actually bifurcate all PCIe lanes, I'll keep the X570 and use something like this as a CPU: https://www.ebay.de/itm/175275999106

Are my ramblings somewhat alright or am I barking up the wrong tree?
