opensolaris / zfs – whitebox build

I’ve built a little server for home use, but it pales in comparison to this beast… This type of setup would be perfect for a lab / test environment that requires lots of fast and reliable disk. SCSI drives are fading out, SATA can perform if its setup right. When you look at the price of the entire build you wonder why corporations continue to spend the big bucks on the big storage names.

Check out this build (very nice clear guide)   http://www.stringliterals.com/?p=77
