There you go- about $2000 after rebates with a perfect Unraid server ready to hold up to 20+TB with ease and a perfect HTPC. Just keep adding more of those 2TB HDs when you need more space....

1) What of above hardware do I need (upated links)? Do I really need all of above? Price is not an issue, but would love to keep complexity down when building it.
Quote:2) Is WHS/Windows Server my "only" option if I want NTFS disk and Zumocast support?
Quote:3) Am I overlooking anything how I can get iphoto streaming support without using OSX Server? I served for several hours, but doesnt look promising...

ASUS P7H55-M PRO MB w/ Intel Core i3-540 Clarkdale 3.06GHz

Thermaltake Slim X3 CLP0534 80mm CPU Cooler

2x WD WD20EARS 2TB 64MB Cache HD (someday I'll build a unraid server but for now I have these 2 drives in the HTPC plus a 1.5tb external drive)
it all fits nicely in a LIAN LI Black Aluminum PC-C37B HTPC Case with a MCE dongle for the URC R50 remote. I used a OCZ power supply that wasn't modular which was a mistake, I just didn't need all those cables and ended up just cutting them off.
I'm running w7, xbmc, sabnzbd, sickbeard, and to a lesser extent couch potato, it's a pretty kick ass box.
