Thanks!  guess the urgency is I'm lacking storage space for my current film / TV shows... but what you said makes a lot of sense.  I'll slap some ram in  and keep it going for a while longer.. sigh! 

Hi. 

Excited to try this. I'm taking an old, Nas4Free - 11.1.0.4 - Atomics (revision 5579) into the present.  It has a  Supermicro X10SL7-F Lots of SAS and Sata ports with  Xeon(R) CPU E3-1246 v3 and 8 gig of Ram.  

I'd like to get into Docker and all the new hotness fun VMs . Is it worth adding ram or should I just bite the bullet build a new machine? 

and if it's a build a new machine I have a case that can accommodate 16 HDs so want a motherboard suggestion with A LOT of Sata ports.  Suggestions? 

Even older -  Nas4Free. 11.1.0.4 - Atomics (revision 5579) on  FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p10 #0 r333737M: Thu May 17 18:40:17 CEST 2018  On a Supermicro X10SL7-F

Would love to be able to import my previous pools in this!
