>>51046446>But I cant be bothered to study the subjectI'm familiar with some basics but I'd rather have an expert opinion on it before you know, I dump $2k on equipment.

>>51046536> microITX server boardI dont want a server though. My drives arent going to be accessed by anyone but me. I basically just want raid 10 + easy way to add drives to the raid.
