Looking for advice on building a 8/12 bay NAS server.
I'm considering building a custom 2U rack mount NAS server build, and found the majority of the parts I need, but I don't understand if the motherboard/OS(FreeNAS) will support the barebone case backplane.
Are backplanes standardized enough that I can just plug into a standard motherboard, or do I need a specific interface card that I need to buy?
