Unsure if this is the right forum, l noticed a few threads talking about first builds so figured I'd post in here.
I was referred to unRaid via IRC, I'm looking for a new NAS setup and was originally going to just buy something like Synology or similar until they told me to build my own and that the unRaid community usually have great advice
I'm in Switzerland and generally use digitec.ch for purchases : https://shop.digitec.ch/en
I'm looking to build something that can be easily put under the bed (current LG NAS N1T1 is under bed, no space anywhere else), is quiet and supports about 4 Tb (might expand in future). Main purpose is I'd use part of the disk space for the media (accessed from the Raspberry Pi on my TV) the rest would be to backup 3 laptops (each are between 128gb - 256gb with most important documents backed up to cloud services already)
I don't care about hot swapping, it seems nice but I guess it would be too expensive. I don't know anything about what type of drives, motherboard, RAM or case that I'd need.
Many thanks in advance
