iago Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 This is my first build and I would like to run Server 2012 R2 Essentials and Audiophile Optimizer in a single configuration. You did not list RAM. The Supermicro accepts 2 x 2GB Non-ECC DDR3 SO-DIMM (like it's used in notebooks). For Windows Server I would install the maximum possible. G.Skill F3-8500CL7D-4GBSQ should work. I believe the LiteOn DS-8ABSH-01 is a tray type DVD, you would need a slot-in similiar to LiteOn DL-8ATSH; I did not find it on Newegg though. If you do not plan to use the server for ripping, leave it out. As I understand it, the Habey comes complete with a power supply, please verify with the dealer. In that case the second PSU is not needed.

TechHiFi Posted May 28, 2014 Author Share Posted May 28, 2014 Thanks for everyone's suggestions in both posts. I deleted the DVD burner and the extra power supply, added the RAM and purchased the above server.
