Intel Core i7-7820X Processor
$469.99
I think I’m going with unraid now.
Thank you for the all the good information guys. But .
I have been trying for 5 days now to get xpenology install on a usb following my playhouse and unkyjoes videos, however everytime I complete the usb installation when I try to boot up its stated
This is a beta version.
I have no one to help me getting it right.
Can someone help please.

The ASRock Z370 Extreme4 goes for 165USD here in New Jersey
And also I saw
MSI Z370 GAMING M5 DESKTOP MOTHERBOARD - INTEL CHIPSET - SOCKET H4 LGA-1151 for $ 80. Which is a good price for me
But nieghter doesn’t one of then have 10gbe port in board.
Can i use any dual 10gbe on Ebay ? For example
Solarflare SFN5122F Dual Port 10GbE PCI-E Server Card is $60 USD would work ??
@chucPA
I’m not sure what you mean i7- 8700k no HDR supported and If i run a native xpenology solution with out docker.
Should I just get the i7-8700k. ??
Would it ?
I did purchase the ASUS XG-U2008 Unmanaged 2-Port 10G and 8-Port Gigabit Switch
When i purchase the ds1817. The ds1817 was running extreamly slow.
The fact that I do bbn have the capability for 10GBe I thought i still need it for have a faster connection when transfering large files.
I did follow that video as well. I keep on finding the beta iso bootload for ds3617sx.
I’m not sure which pcie card is suitable.
I looked on ebay for synology 10gbe cards, they goes for around 200 t0 300 $.
That is why I ask if any 10gbe under 100$ on Ebay is suitable.
Thankx
I will start getting all the parts and start the build.
I will be back for more questions.
Thank you all.
