Hi guys, Its been a long time since my last post but its time for a new build again.
Basically what im looking for is a homeserver which I can also use ase a backup server and media streamer.
I have been looking at online reviews and guides but is hard to narrow down components to use.
I am living in Ireland so I will be buying the components from Irish and UK sites.
The system must have/needs to:
- Stream HD video 1080p
- 5.1 audio output
- Have low power consumption
- Id like to leave it on 24/7 and have it act as a backup server to backup the other pcs in my house.
- It will need to act as a webserver ( Id like remore access to my media )
- Ideally im looking at i3 Intel mobo/processor
- I will be leaving this pc in the media room underneath a TV, so controlling it with a remote would be a nice feature.
- Id like it as compact as posssible (mini ITX mobo/case), but the case must be able to fit at least 2 3.5" drives along with a DVD drive.
I understand what im looking for is a mix of everything But any help you guys can give in the line of components would be great.
I hope to collect these parts over time but my budget is around €500-€700.
Please let me know if this is dooable.
Thanks,
Dan.
*EDIT:
- I have Windows 7 already bought.
- I have already purchased 2 x 2TB hard drives (for backing up my data)
