I bought a new NUC5i5RYH and am going to run windows 8.1
What is everyone's ideal system? I am basically using it as a HTPC - watch movies, netflix, itunes sync to my ipads and iphones, and local photo storage (which I currently use a external 2 tb drive that I will just plugin)
I was thinking about getting a m.2 128/256 and then getting a 7200 rpm notebook drive for 1tb. Will that run too hot? I wanted to keep it as silent as possible.
So far:
Crucial MX200 CT250MX200SSD6 M.2 Type 2260DS (Double Sided) 250GB SATA 6Gbps (SATA III) Micron 16nm MLC NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) or considering a transcend 128gb? Thoughts?
Crucial 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR3/DDR3L-1600 MHz (PC3-12800) CL11 204-Pin SODIMM Memory for Mac CT2K8G3S160BM / CT2C8G3S160BM
I don't know what 2nd HD to get to fit in the 2.5 slot? Any recommendations?
Any help in advance is greatly appreciated? Am I missing anything?
