Forget USB stick as OS device as it told by others :)
If you want to keep SATA ports, you should add some more either
connecting to a low profile pci/pcie card or maybe to use some msata
add-on card. It is fast, reliable and not so expensive

In my experience, that's a bad idea. USB-sticks are not reliable over
a longer period, and you can expect data loss.

I could be wrong, but I think
- most USB sticks are quite slow.
- USB2 sticks are guaranteed to be slow-ish
- USB sticks seem to have low

Hi Robert.

If I do that I lose one SATA port out of the 4 that the motherboard has.
I want to slowly upgrade it to a Raid 1+0 system, unless there is a better
option. Will ZFS on two mirrored HDDs be a viab

HI
I have a small home server (photos, videos, music) that is reaching full
capacity.
It is a 750GB, partitioned as a 50G OS and 700G Data + swap
The mobo, an Intel DG31PR mobo has 1 PATA and 4 SATA ports (3GB/s).
Currently it is running FC20, having been continuously upgraded from almost
