I'd buy this if I hadn't already bought the t20 in Feb. It was $120 cheaper but this has the v5 processor and 8 gig.

I've been looking at building/buying something for a NAS + Plex with transcoding 1-2 1080 streams. Seems to be a pretty good system for this purpose?

Do you think it will overkill for a NAS because of power consumption? How many drives can be installed and what software can be used for NAS? TIA.

I was thinking of using FreeNAS as I saw some had used it on a Dell T20 so I'm assuming a T30 would also work. As far as power overkill, there are likely lower power systems for strictly NAS use, but I figured something more powerful would be needed for Plex transcoding. I suppose the real question is what the idle power requirements are for the system. I have no idea on that.

Also just thought I'd add - the 8g of memory on the system is not ECC ram, which for some is a requirement for a NAS, and would add a bit to the cost.

I think you'd be much better off with the T130. They are running the SERVER200 promo almost constantly and the base starts at 449-200 = 249. With some configuration for only about 100 bucks more you step up in class and you can get a HyperThreading E3 1230v5.

Also, don't forget to check Cashback sites because I've seen 8 and 10% fairly often.

Yea, if any of these have a built in raid controller it would be a great deal. All these are lacking one.
