I currently have a Synology 220+ and a couple of VPS's, and I'm looking to consolidate, while getting out of Synology's walled garden. I've already got a couple of 3.5's in the Synology, and 4 2.5's lying around and I'm planning on running a number of docker containers and a couple of vms.

That said, I've never built anything before, and basically just went to PCPartPicker, started with the case, and checked 5-stars on each component and went from there. So... how absurd is my build?
