Hi,
I'm looking for motherboard recommendations for a media server I want to build. I'm hoping to store my entire DVD collection, music collection, home videos, and photo collection on this server. I'm thinking I want about 2-3TB of raid 5 storage. This server would also be used extensively for ripping CD's and DVD's as well as encoding audio and video to different formats. I may use this PC for some video editting and photoshop work as well.
I am currently looking at the MSI P965 Platnium because it sounds like a good performer and the Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6 because of it's I/O performance. But honestly, I have no clue how to pick a motherboard for this application.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
