Music Server Build ***Intel NUC Xeon

[Datka]

*** This is what i currently have 

 

Computer module : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/pr   Intel NUC 9 Pro NUC9VXQNB Xeon 2.4GHz-5.0GHz

CPU Intel Xeon E-2286M

 64GiB  Kingston DDR4 ECC RAM

2x 1TB of Samsung 970 NVMe M.2 SSD

Intel® Optane™ SSD P1600X Series  118 GB  as a 3rd NVME

 

 

Some recommended trying older Intel SATA drives with SLC memory, is that still the case ?  im planning on evaluating different drives including RAID Setup , Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC)  not sure if this processor supports VROC....

For my Computer case , I'm thinkin on using Streacom DB4 Fanless Chassis, might have to modify it to work with Intel computer module.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Power i have not decided yet but  thinking about HDPLEX 500W ? i would love to build custom power , but I don't have enough skills for that .  Power will be external  

 

Any recommendations against HDPLEX ?    if stock power is lets say 2 and Jcat ATX is 10   would you say HDLEX is somewhere is 6-7 ? 

 

I'm planning on trying server \ streamer solution with JCAT USB card, but from my experience 2 box solution always worked best for me. 

 

for OS I'm planning on trying Windows 2019 Server Core and  Euphony Stylus to see what works best 

Can you recommend proper Linear power setup in case HDPLEX us not very good...

My current digital  setup includes

 

<> Fidata fidata hfas1-s10  "BTW i love this server<> "Optical Rendu" < > "Optical Media Converter" running off Uptone JS1 LPS

<> USB  Chord Dave

This with Taiko DC to DC would be ultimate setup for me,

Can someone confirm if Plex DC ATX would work with  with somethilink like that ? 

 

Space \ looks \ convivence a part , would this solution even work 

 

 if this would even work . ? 

 

[Datka]

I guess I was trying to say that 

 

Pachenko with Taiko DC would be ultimate setup that totals about 6000usd  “ outside of my budget” 

 

 

what I’m trying to understand if Plex 400 W DC would work with 24 volt battery?  Total price for that should be in 1000-1200 range , but I don’t know if 1 it works and 2 if it would sound  good . 
 

thanks
