if dili Intel based gigabit NIC ang gamiton, ang transfer rate nya naa ra sa 40 ~ 60 MB/sec... if intel based NIC, mo abot ug 80 ~ 100+ MB/sec... mao ni akoang experience on an 8 GB and 4 GB memory FreeNAS servers... using different type of NIC chip sets...
nice to have ra man hinoon nang 80 ~ 100+ MB/sec transfer speed... need lang ni kun mag back-up ta's entire HDD system to another server...
mao ni na gigabit NIC chip sets diay ang akoang nasuwayan sa FreeNAS OS...
Broadcom (mobo onboard)
VIA (mobo onboard and PCIe add-in card)
Realtek (mobo onboard and PCIe add-in card)
Qualcomm - Atheros (mobo onboard)
Intel (mobo onboard and PCIe add-in card)

^ mao gyud... korekens gyud ni... gamay ra ang previous mobos ug even karon na nag gamit ug intel Gigabit NIC sa onboard. ang onboard na intel gigabit NIC na nagamit nko kay sa akoang Intel Atom D2700MUD mobo... nag palit ko'g 2 x PCIe intel Gigabit NIC for my FreeNAS ang entertainment rig para pas2x ang transfer sa files... labi na, mag back-up or transfer sa sinimana or binuwan na downloaded movies...
i'll just mention these 3 ha para example lang... ang Asrock H97M PRO4, H97 Pro4 & Fatality H97 Performance mobos kay naka onboard Intel Gigabit NIC na ni sila...Last edited by lloyd_joy; 11-03-2014 at 08:01 PM.

if purely for storage ra gyud, naa koy cheaper alternative. palit og cdrking tomato router (CDR KING or newer versions) + external hard drive (3.5" w/ power adapter). so far ok ra man pang store media files ma play ra nako without lag from any of the computers at home. if wa kay salig sa cdrking brand pwede sad ka palit anang asus or netgear nga naay usb port around 5k+ ngali.

^ yeah, mas cheaper alternative ang router w/ USB for NAS... pero, mas nice experience kun naka PC based ang server para mura'g korek... hehehe... nice ni kun ang gamiton mga biya na PC components para magamit pud sila... dili lang mabutang sa daplin na wala'y gamit... but, ok pud kaayo kun bnew components ang gamiton...
lingaw man pud gud kun mag PC based NAS kay ala Pro ang dating... hehehehe... para dili ta ma ihas kun unsa ning mga NAS OS like FreeNAS, NAS4Free, OpenMediaVault, OpenFiler and others...
allow me to share mine diri... napawong ko ni kay nag maintenance ko... akoang gi limpyohan ang sulod... currently running for 93 days as of today since napawong nko sya for physical cleaning... mag 2 yrs na ni sya as FreeNAS server and running 24/7... mapawong lang kun mag maintenance ko... limpyo's abog sa sulod or kun mo pauli ko dha sa Cebu ug 2 weeks... kaso, wala man ko maka uli sa Cebu ug 2 weeks since Jan '13 so, mapawong lang ni sya'g maintenance. here's the complete HW:
cpu: G530T
cpu cooling system: PC Cooler Q100M
mobo: Biostar H61MLC (m-ATX)
mem: 8 GB (2 x 4 GB Avexir Core Series DDR3 1333 MHz),
video card: Nvidia GT210 1GB DDR5...pwede ra wala ni pero, extra man ni nako, akoa lang gi gamit pud.
hdd: 4 TB (2 x 2TB Toshiba 7200 rpm desktop consumer level HDDs)... individual drive na ni sila. wala na nko gi RAID kay kalas2x lang ug space. akoa lang gi back-up pan ang important files to an external drive.
psu: Antec Earthwatts EA380... true rated 380 W 80+ bronze certified
NIC: Intel Gigabit PCIe
chassis: Sahara M1 Mini-Hackers (m-ATX)
NAS OS: FreeNAS 8.3.0 release... wala na ko mag upgrade ani nya.
storage where the FreeNAS OS was located: 4 GB SanDisk Cruzer USB flash drive
@ TS,
kun maka kita ka'g 2nd hand na CPU na LGA 1155 (Sandy Bridge)... 2nd hand will do, ok ra gyud ni... then paresi lang ug pinaka barato na H61 chip set based mobo (2nd hand will do)... then pangita'g pinaka barato na DDR3 1333 MHz ram... 2nd hand will do just fine... or, a LGA 775 platform will do too... or AMD's counterparts... nice pud ning mga low power consumption na mga HW from both Intel and AMD for a NAS server...Last edited by lloyd_joy; 11-04-2014 at 08:33 PM.

just to update this discussion thread...
for business & personal use, pwede kaayo pud ang AMD APUs and FX series for FreeNAS... kun storage lang ang function nya, table ra man ni'g idle sya. for benchmark lang, mao ni ang power consumption if idle... naa ra sa in ani na power consumption range mag hover ang power consumption. pwede ra ta dili mangita'g mga low power CPUs kun lisod pangita-on...

^ no idea ko for diskless booting using FreeNAS bro but for diskless storage pwede kaayo. mao ni gamit aning FreeNAS. compatible man sya sa ani na mga OS (Windows, UNIX & Apple)...
powerful ning FreeNAS OS... nice sya'g function... you can check it here in their official site...
FreeNAS Project - Open Source Storage - FreeNAS Project
toinks, grabeh naman ug HW requirement ning current version of FreeNAS OS. dili na mo support ug 32 bit CPU. ako, gamit nko kay previous OS version pa nila. to be exact, version 8.3.0... both 32 bit & 64 bit OS akoang gamit as well as installed on both 32 & 64 bit HW respectively. wla ra gyud problema on both Intel & AMD CPUs...
pero, ma DL ra gihapon diri ang previous OS versions...
