So I’ve been wanting a storage system for a few years now. I was thinking just some hardware RAID with some big drives and leave room in the chassis for expansion but after reading article after article saying URE’s will pwn your ass on large arrays during rebuilds I was very skeptic. *Enter ZFS*
ZFS is like the holy grail of storage. Yes software RAID rules…
- Norco RPC-4020
- Two 80GB WD 10K SATA Raptors
- 2 Supermicro
- Other raid controller
- 2GB DDR2
- xyz mobo
- AMD X2 4050+ or some shit
Still need to pickup some data drives, the raptors are for a mirrored OS volume.
