Very big in Japan, I'm not sure but it might be something rebranded. Good quality, prices are competitive too. Yeah, its massive overkill but I figure why not? I'll write it off as a business expense anyway. Linux ZFS seems ok, guess I just have to wait and see. On Ubuntu it was simple to...

It took a while, but I'm finally done!! First off, the updated hardware list: Case: Lian-Li PC-Q25 Motherboard: Intel S1200KPR (Mini-ITX) Processor: Intel Xeon E3-1265LV2 Power supply: Kurotoshiko KRPW-PT500W/92+ Memory: Kingston 2x 8GB ECC DDR3-10600 HBA: IBM ServeRAID M1015 HDD...

I use ALiX 2D3's on half a dozen sites with <10mbit connections, all connecting back to an ASA in the main office. Running pfsense in the branch offices. You can buy it all direct from PC Engines on their site - ALiX board costs about $105, case is $10, 2GB CF card is $12, power supply is $5...
