Hey Jens,
Super-useful thread and even more useful blog post. I'm planning to follow your example at building my node. I'm an architect basicly and visualiser on the side but this part of my business is taking over for better or worse, and I thought raising my game by setting up a slave unit.
A couple of questions related to your process..
a) You mention using network paths to avoid problems with the node finding your files. Would you recommend using an external NAS on your switch for this reason? Would that slow things down you think?
b) You mention your Homegroup runs on windows 10. In your opinion having Win 7 ultimate on one or both machines (workstation and node) would be recommended or not?
Again thanks for sharing the knowledge!
Alex
