Will be used for storage, TV server (recording, timeshifting etc) and streaming for 2 or 3 clients...
Core i3 2120
Asrock B75M-GL
Sandisk 240Gb SSD (OS)
2 x 4Tb WD Green (storage)
2 x 4Gb DDR3 Corsair XMS, 1333MHz
I know the HD 2000 graphics on the i3 chip is a bit poor, but the most video intensive stuff the machine will have to do is watch the odd 1080p video or a bit of HD video editing.
Trying to do it on a budget as weve just moved house, hence the Sandy Bridge setup rather than anything newer.
Opinions pls
TIA
