What model controller is that?
2. does not use stock SATA ports at all,
Why? Are these SATA ports bad or substandard or what? Are you not even
using them for booting?
3. has 2*8GB Kingston RAM and
KVR1333D3E9SK2/16G ???
4. 4*4TB disks for the data pool (raidz1, though I'd rather have more
disks and a
higher redundancy) and
What disk type?
With 8 ports on the LSI controller, I suppose you could add an external
ICY Box for 4 more disks? If you boot from the on-bord SATA ports.
5. 2*120Gb Samsung Pro SSDs (with powerloss
protection, formatted to use 100Gb for mirrored rpool/mirrored
zil/striped l2arc since their 100Gb sub-model has much higher
reliability and speed - but is not on sale here). I'd say that the
L2ARC on this box could use more volume, it (~2*60Gb) fills up
pretty quickly and does not place a big toll on RAM yet. Disk IO
performance is pretty decent for a home gigabit LAN, processing
not so much (i.e. for compilation), although still quite usable :)
The above is a wee bit unclear! Please clarify.
