Well luckily the pictures I posted was a build I was doing for myself but I can easily sell it to a friend who has been eyeing it and even offered to buy it from me now comes to problem of moving the damn thing since I had to cut out the Ikea wood for the radiator.
I use to run Dells a long time how comparable are they now to the Asus line? I know theres a few other companies out there but I havent been on the market for new monitors.
just ordered this: Amazon.com: Dell U2713HM-IPS-LED CVN85 27-Inch Screen LED-lit Monitor: Computers & Accessories

Added 2 more drives
Bought 2 more 3tb drives to complete my server.

Added them to the RAID and decided I had enough space so only went up in capacity with 1 drive and changed the Raid5 array to Raid6. Total capacity is 13.6TB now, and I'm only using 4TB so far.

A bit faster even though redundancy was increased to 2 drives. This computer should have no issue serving media and running my IP cameras.
