I plan on using a RAIDZ and was wondering what power supply would be best for this build. Not sure if there are server specific psu's that have enough cables to power each HD or how that works so any help would be appreciated! (also havent decided on ram yet)
 
Most PSUs have at least 6 SATA connectors, so you should be covered.

A good 500 or 550 watt power supply would be more than sufficient.
