  1. All: Here goes my first post on the forum. I have almost finalized my first NAS build, and I decided on UnRaid over FreeNAS after a lot of reading. Here is the configuration I've planned for, from pcpartpicker.com. And now retailers have released Kaby Lake processors and Motherboards with Intel z270 chipset, for roughly the same combo (MB+CPU) cost as what I've configured below for their Skylake counterparts. The newer z270-based motherboards don't explicitly state Linux support at this time. So, is it advisable to upgrade to Kaby Lake CPU + z270-based MB at this time if they don't officially support Linux-based OS? Please advise.
