Hello
I was wondering if anyone could enlighten me as to how i go about connecting 9x3TB SATA hdd´s in a harddrive enclosure using the antec twelve hundred cabinet?
I have ever only built pc´s that use the amount of sata connectors on the motherboard,but this time i would like to build a system that runs 9x3TB drives in a RAID5. I will be using only WD 3TB Caviar Green SATA 3.0
So i need to know what hardware i need as well as how to connect it to accomplish RAID5.
As unit is ONLY intended to run, as a storage unit for movies to feed my pocorn hour A-210 over gigabit lan, do i need a seperate gfx card,or would a motherboard with gfx built in suffice? What motherboard would you suggest,cheap but reliable, how large a PSU should i use? How much ram is needed? Do i need a specific RAID Controller,if so which one?
I am sure there will be more questions later, but for now these will do. I hope you can help me
Thank you
