I'm planning out a home NAS using Solaris 11 Express. I have most of the parts selected and will be ordering the rest today or tomorrow.
Uses:
-File storage
-Playstation Media Server
-SABnzbd+
-Transmission
-AMP (Apache MySQL PHP)
-SFTP
-Backup (Windows and Time Machine)
Parts:
-8x 2TB Hitachi 5k3000
-2x 500GB Seagate Momentus XT
-BR10i
-Intel Core i3 530
-Gigabyte GT210 (Single-slot passive)
-8GB DDR3
-Motherboard/case unknown
Configuration:
-OpenSolaris Expressinstalled onto 500GB mirror
-RAIDZ2 on 8x 2TB
-Media folders shared via SMB/AFP/SFTP/WWW/PMS
-htdocs folder with snapshots shared via SMB/AFP/SFTP mounted to desktop and used as Dropbox folder
-Important files folder with encryption/snapshot/automated onside/offsite backup (USB/SFTP) shared via SMB/AFP (shell script/cron should take care of this)
-napp-it for management
Questions:
-Need to pick out a case and motherboard
-Case needs either 8 bay hotswap or 6 5.25" bays for hotswap enclosures
-Board needs slots for videocard, BR10i and possible Intel NIC
-I wont have any problems with the 8x 2TB drives in RAIDZ2 will I?
-I can configure encryption and snapshots on a per-folder basis, correct?
-Is there anything else I need to think about?
