Hi all,
First post, but I've been a lurker around just never got to making an account on the forums. One thing though, I admire most of what you all have in terms of builds hella nice rigs hopefully I can reach those ranks at some point. Anyhow! I plan on making a fileserver and then I'll have crashplan run overnight to backup.
Parts
Case: Fractal Design Define XL Titanium E-ATX Or. Lian Li PC-A77FB
PSU: Corsair Enthusiast Series TX850M
RAM: Corsair CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9 Vengeance 16GB
CPU: Intel Core i3 550 Dual Core Processor Clarkdale
MOBO: Gigabyte Z68MA-D2H-B3 mATX LGA1155 Z68
Raid: LSI 9265-8i going raidz2
Bay: Supermicro Black 3X5.25 to 5X3.5IN SATA Drive Bay
HD: 4x Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB
OS: FreeBSD
Would these parts be sufficient for a ZFS system? I do plan on adding more drives over time. Please let me know if any of these parts would be an issue or if there's another alternative that I can go for?
