Based on your goals you need roughly 4 CPU threads, 26GB RAM and 5TB of storage. This system runs 24/7, so energy matters. Recommended: the Smart build — best all-round — 1060€ purchase, ~39W idle, ~183€/year energy (≈550€ over 3 years). Intel Core i3 14100: 8 threads covers the 4 needed with headroom. Motherboard Intel Z790 (LGA 1700): matches the CPU socket and case size. RAM: 64GB DDR4 — meets the 26GB the workload requires. Chose Intel Core i3 14100 over Intel Core i3 14100F: better overall fit for your priorities. Build DNA: performance 100, value 91, efficiency 70, expandability 100, silence 95, longevity 100 — overall 91/100. Heads-up: Total (1060€) exceeds your budget (500€) by 560€ (112%). Ranking already prefers in-budget variants — this one is shown for comparison; check the value variant or raise the budget. What limits you first: CPU. Alternatives: Value build — most for your money — 1060€, DNA 91/100, balanced · Long-term build — expandable & future-proof — 1239€, DNA 93/100, balanced · Build yourself — for comparison — 1060€, DNA 91/100, balanced.

Qué significa
Una puntuación de solidez futura explicable, el Homelab Risk Score, una auditoría final antes de comprar y qué se convertirá en el factor limitante con el tiempo.
Solidez futura sólida
Strong future-proofing (77/100) — this build should stay relevant for years without major surgery.
DIY build — the CPU, motherboard and PSU can each be upgraded independently without replacing the whole system.
Expansion headroom: 2 PCIe slot(s), 2 M.2, 3 SATA, 0 drive bay(s), 2 RAM slot(s) free.
Storage is 19% utilized with 0 free drive bay(s) and 3 free SATA port(s).
2 RAM slot(s) free; memory is 41% utilized.
Networking is 2500 Mbps, and a free PCIe slot can add a faster NIC later.
ATX form factor with standard, socketed components — most parts are easy to replace.
No GPU, but there is room (2 PCIe slot(s), PSU headroom 9.6x) to add one for AI/transcoding.
Riesgo moderado
Moderate risk (41/100) — a few items are worth fixing before you commit (see checklist).
Single point of failure
Riesgo: highStorage has no redundancy (2 drives, no mirror/parity) — a single drive failure exposes the array.
Solución: Add at least a mirror (RAID 1/ZFS mirror) for irreplaceable data, or an additional parity drive for larger arrays.
Storage risk
Riesgo: medium1 desktop hard drive(s) — not rated for 24/7 duty, vibration or heat; higher long-run failure risk.
Solución: For an always-on system, prefer NAS/CMR-rated drives; monitor SMART and replace before the warranty ends.
Data loss risk
Riesgo: critical2 drive(s), no redundancy, hard-drive media — the worst combination for keeping data safe.
Solución: Add redundancy and an off-site/off-box backup for anything irreplaceable.
Power risk
Riesgo: lowPSU is 1000W, peak load 104W (10%).
Solución: PSU sizing leaves healthy headroom for spikes and future parts.
Network risk
Riesgo: lowSingle 2500 Mbps NIC — a switch/port failure takes the box fully offline, and multi-user media can saturate 2500 Mbps.
Solución: Consider a second NIC or a managed switch; for heavy media, plan for 2.5/10G before the build.
Expansion risk
Riesgo: low2 PCIe, 2 M.2, 3 SATA, 0 bays free.
Solución: Healthy room for future drives, NICs and accelerators.
Upgrade risk
Riesgo: low2024 platform — current generation with a forward-looking socket/feature set.
Solución: Buy for the workload, not the socket — upgrade paths are a bonus, not a guarantee.
Audit found 2 critical and 0 warning item(s) worth fixing before you buy.
Check the balance
CríticoTotal (1060€) exceeds your budget (500€) by 560€ (112%). Ranking already prefers in-budget variants — this one is shown for comparison; check the value variant or raise the budget.
Acción: Reconsider the config for the stated workload or budget before buying.
Categoría: balance
No storage redundancy
Crítico2 drive(s) with no mirror or parity for the data you plan to store.
Acción: Add at least a mirror for irreplaceable data before you migrate anything.
Categoría: storage
Use NAS-rated drives
OptimizaciónDesktop drives in an always-on NAS/server role have higher long-run failure rates.
Acción: Prefer NAS/CMR-rated drives for 24/7 duty.
Categoría: storage
Add a UPS
OpcionalAn always-on server holding data should survive power blips.
Acción: Add an online/line-interactive UPS sized to the build's idle draw.
Categoría: power
Keep a backup off-box
OpcionalRedundancy inside the box does not survive fire, theft or a whole-array fault.
Acción: Mirror the important data to an external drive, a second box, or cloud.
Categoría: storage
RAM expansion available
Futuro2 RAM slot(s) free for a later upgrade.
Acción: Leave them free until the workload actually grows.
Categoría: memory
PCIe slot available
Futuro2 free PCIe slot(s) for a NIC, HBA or GPU later.
Acción: Use it for a 10G NIC, extra HBA, or an accelerator when the need appears.
Categoría: expansion
Nothing obvious becomes a limiting factor in the near term — this build should age well.
CPU is the closest to its limit (50% of capacity in use) — it will likely force the next upgrade.
