New server

http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/21948-ltt-10tb-storage-show-off-topic/?p=6497821

4x 2.5 SSDs inside for FreeNAS OS and jails for Plex.

Currently 14x 3tb disks in two raidz2 vdevs in a ZFS pool. Will eventually be 5 such vdevs in the same pool.

New server

New server (rear)

Dual redundant 1400 watt PSUs

Old QNap NAS

This has 6x2TB disks in RAID6. The data from this will be migrated to the new server and then the NAS sold.

Old Plex head

This is a Tranquil PC Abel H22 Intel i5 server w/16G ram, 2TB 2.5 HDD and 512 m.2 SSD running Plex.

It will be repurposed to run other random projects on once the new server is running Plex.

Two DAS boxes

One has 4x3tb disks in RAID5 connected via esata to the Tranquil PC, and the other with 4x4tb disks in RAID5 also connected via esata to the Tranquil PC.

Once the data is migrated from these to the new server, the disks will be moved to the new server and the DAS boxes sold.

Wow. Is that for personal use? Are you even compressing your videos at all or just straight blu-ray/dvd rips?

Seems like you are going to provide a private popcorn streaming site.
