Check the balance
KriittinenRequested 2500 Mbps but board Intel H610 has max 1000 Mbps onboard and no free PCIe slot — staying on onboard networking. Add a board with a free slot for 2.5G/10G.

No storage redundancy
Kriittinen2 drive(s) with no mirror or parity for the data you plan to store.
Toimenpide: Add at least a mirror for irreplaceable data before you migrate anything.
Luokka: storage
CPU close to the limit
KriittinenThe workload uses 100% of the CPU — little headroom for background tasks or growth.
Toimenpide: Consider a stronger CPU or drop a secondary workload.

Use NAS-rated drives
OptimointiDesktop drives in an always-on NAS/server role have higher long-run failure rates.
Toimenpide: Prefer NAS/CMR-rated drives for 24/7 duty.
Luokka: storage
Plan faster networking
Optimointi1G networking is fine today but will bottleneck multi-user media or big NAS transfers at 5TB.
Toimenpide: Budget for a 2.5G/10G NIC and switch later, or spec it now.
Luokka: network
An always-on server holding data should survive power blips.
Toimenpide: Add an online/line-interactive UPS sized to the build's idle draw.

Keep a backup off-box
ValinnainenRedundancy inside the box does not survive fire, theft or a whole-array fault.
Toimenpide: Mirror the important data to an external drive, a second box, or cloud.
Luokka: storage
Drive bays remain
Tulevaisuus1 drive bay(s) free for future capacity.
Toimenpide: Expand capacity in pairs (mirror/parity) when needed.
Luokka: storage
PCIe slot available
Tulevaisuus1 free PCIe slot(s) for a NIC, HBA or GPU later.
Toimenpide: Use it for a 10G NIC, extra HBA, or an accelerator when the need appears.
