hey /g/uys, you think q6600 with 4gb of ram could make a decent

Maybe? Try it.

just asking for some advice

>>61937929
Sure why not. You can forget zfs tho.

>>61937929
with those specs, sure.
you could do all those at once.

>>61937929
Sure, but a j3455 board would do the same with much less power.

>>61938166
why?

You need a lot of space to make it work. But it's amazing if you are storing around a petabyte. Anything less you could just use BTRFS.

>>61938267
You need about 1gb per tb with zfs, the mo the betta

I would up the memory, but Q6600 is a fantastic chip and should run all of those with no problem.

I have the q6600, isnt the power it use make it not worth it?

>>61938522
How accurate is this rule of thumb? Im planning on 40TB zfs array with 32GB of ram

You should be fine as long as you don't try to dedupe.

I don't know about SSH as I don't use that, but I had a forum, ftp, storage server running on an Atom 330 with 4GB ram before and it ran fine, moved it up to a J1900 with 8GB ram recently though.

>>61937929
Yes, thing big server are made for dozens thousand user concurrent, just couple hundred user is OK

>>61941737
Eh, use ceph if you want fancy shit or jyst btrfs or ext4 if you want the usual with some performance.

heh, back in the day (2003ish) business servers were humming along just fine with hardware spec wise that's commonly now found in your low end consumer desktops with exception being dedicated raid cards/nics/etc. So I think you will be fine

ZFS user here.
You can work terabytes of data with two gigabytes of RAM on a shitty dual core celeron as long as you DO NOT turn on dedup or anything more than LZ4 compression.
