Hi,
My current home NAS motherboard died. The config was RAID 1 for Windows and all data disks in HBA mode for use with Storage Spaces.
I'm soon to be getting an HP ML110 G7 motherboard which has integrated SD Card slot and internal USB port, so just wondered if I could install Windows to that and use all data disks purely for data. Was looking at the SanDisk Extreme Pro 128GB if SD.
My NAS is literally for data storage, and I chose Windows Storage Spaces because I like that SSDs can be used for both read and write caching. I don't have to use Windows again if something else can be installed to SD Card/USB and provides the same or better caching than Storage Spaces.
My only real requirement is that I can use it as the back-end for HDHomeRun's DVR Service.
Thanks!
