Will this work for a Media server.

This is what i like to buy.
Sorry about the danish site just look at the tech spec's )

Tower : http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=435779

MB : http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=718392
MB have 6 sata ports which i really like.

4 x hdd's
1 x os hdd. ( might be a SSD )
1 dvd drive.

Ram : http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=447681

CPU : http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=713925
Belive this will work with MB so i dont have to buy another graffic card right?

Hdd's : http://www.edbpriser.dk/Product/Details.aspx?pid=707922

Dvd drive : http://www.shg.dk/DVD-Blu-Ray-Drev/...REW-8X-CD-24X-RAM-SATA-BLACK-OEM-2186460.html

And here some the biggest question. Will a 180 W psu be enought for all this?
 
I say no if that CPU is gonna be stressed in any way.
 
The HDDs alone would require around 100W to spinup; so 180W DC might be a little short. Still, i think it would work. After the spinup your disks should use much less power (4.0W instead of 25-30W each).
 
hmm that kinda sucks sins the tower have the psu build in... any ides on another psu that will fit?

I think the PSU is a custom model. So finding a replacement will be hard.

Have you thought about going with an Intel Atom dual core build? Would work just then with the included PSU + all those drives.
 
First off i found a minior mistake.. the tower that i have up there show a 120W psu but the model i'm looking at have a 180W psu will that fix it??

Danny : Yeah but i cant find any MB with 6 sata ports and i kinda need that..
 
Zotac and SuperMicro Atom boards have 6 SATA onboard. Though pricewise the Core i3 setup would give you lots more performance at comparable price. If you have to buy a new PSU anyway then buying a more powerful model shouldn't be a problem?
 
i cant find another PSU that fit this tower why i need to find another MB that can fit insted.
I dont see any zotac atom boards with 6 sata's ports
