Build Help, how to move forward

Would like to seek advice on how to proceed with my current build, upgrade path My current setup is: HP Prodesk 600 SFF (running OMV) acting as photo storage, archiving server as shown below: https://preview.redd.it/z20nakx4j3sg1.png?width=2400&format=png&auto=webp&s=c5919bc35b7f85f90a0586362259798e41f62bdf The storage config now is: 8 x 1TB 2.5" SSD (connected via LSI SAS card): Got these from an office sale and basically no wear on them 2 x 8TB HDD I have another ThinkStation P3 Tiny (running OMV) as plex server as shown below: https://preview.redd.it/nr3na2ylj3sg1.png?width=584&format=png&auto=webp&s=a7fba3b20631494b337fc5dac04c0a9bee893073 The storage config now is: 3 x 4TB SSD: Got these from an office sale too I recently got a good deal on some good 4x12TB HDDs so I'm thinking how to proceed with my home server setup. Should I: Go full DIY and get a Jonsbo N6 and connect all HDDs there as photo, longterm storage, run some containers (sell the 1TB 2.5" SSDs or smth) Connect a DAS to house the 4x12TB HDDs to the P3 Tiny Or if anyone has some other advice. I'm trying to minimize cost as much as possible while also trying to preserve future flexibility. Would love to hear everyone's thoughts. Please also keep in mind that I leave outside the US so some options might be out of my reach. Thanks! submitted by /u/that-one-tito [link] [comments]
