What is the largest file size you expect to host on the server?

>>51826512
Something like your mom.

>>51826537
I don't know my mother. Could you elaborate?

>>51826485
ext4.

If you wanna get fancy and have surplus ram you can try ZFS .

>>51826485
For cross-OS support and no file and drive size limitations, I'd go with NTFS. If you only intend to use Linux, then go with ext4 of course.

lvm

>>51826550
Yea i was thinking this ^^
since ddr3 memory is pretty cheap tho if i order from company.

>>51826485
if you expect it to be easily accessible from windows without the use of a third party program then go ntfs

>>51826485
FAT8

>>51826550

>ext4 on a freebsd based os
Check out these tards.

It's a network attached storage, the filesystem does not matter for cross platform accessibility.

>>51826485
If you have lots of memory, ZFS.
If not, UFS on nas4free. freenas is sort of shit for this option.

>>51826485
ReFS, obviously

>>51826771
Jesus dude you could not be more wrong. Just because it's attached via network doesn't mean it exists in a vacuum. What if he wants samba folders or active directory

XFS for nas

OP here, so i got a lga 1366 motherboard what cpuw ould be best to buy price & performance wise?

>>51827898
you should be able to get 6 core xeons for not very much money now.

FAT

>>51826722
What would you recommend?

ext3/4

>>51826804
This.

ZFS is fantastic, just buy the memory for it, ram is cheap anyway.

can someone explain to me this filesystem stuff, i dont really understand all that much except that ext4 werks, fat doesnt allow you to save big files, and hfs is exceedingly dumb because it doesnt have caps sensitivity
