My boss at work asked me to build a file storage server to hold all of our ghost images. He wants 4 TB of space in RAID 1 (so 8 TB). I was planning on using one of the Precision 390s as a start and add the storage to it. After looking around at my options, I'm even more lost than when I started. For a while I thought a NAS would be best, then I thought an external rack with 2x4 multi connectors running to it. I could even get another PCI-X SATA card in conjunction with the internal SATA connectors, convert them to ESATA connectors and just have a bunch of externals. Any help or recommendations you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated. Oh, I've got ~$5000 to work with.
Thanks in advance.
