Hello!

New here, looking for advice on a File/Media server running Linux Server with Plex Media Server to stream my content.
I used Mike Chin's excellent SFF Home Server Guide as base for my build.
Using a LGA1155 setup with a little more power than Mike used in order to help Plex with transcoding duties.

Here it is:
Case: LIAN LI PC-Q08
PSU: Seasonic X-560
Motherboard: ASUS P8H77-I
CPU: Core i5-3470
CPU Cooler: Scythe SAMURAI-ZZ
Memory: Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1600MHz 2x2GB
Storage: 6x Seagate Barracuda 2TB in Raid 5 - Will run a separate partition for OS.

Any thoughts?

Thank you, and thanks for a great site :)
