So, hardware has always been my weak spot, which now proves to be a problem. I recently made a mistake when configuring my AI PC, which was pretty costly, and I want to avoid that error when it comes to the NAS I plan to build this year. When looking up consumer mainboards, a lot of them support ECC-RAM, but when you look in the manual, it says stuff like "runs in non ECC-mode" which, of course, is exactly what I'm NOT looking for.
I have researched quite a bit, but I'm struggling of juggling with the multitude of information, especially regarding the main boards.
I have the following use case:
- Mainboard needs to be able to support a HDD controller AND a graphics card (for a full 16 HDD)
- Full Support of DDR 5 ECC RAM (Mainboard and Processor)
- If possible, the processor should have a graphic's unit.
- 2+ M.2 would be optimal
- Consumer hardware
I need both a graphic's unit on the processor and a graphic card so the graphic card can run media encoding stuff for a Jellyfin Server I'm planning.
Any help or pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.
