About 40% of it. 50% adobe *.psd and the other 10% all sort of data.
so make sense.
but make sure you do regular backups.

This is one of the main reasons i want to go with ZFS. Another would be the
filesystem level compression of the data. I have noticed that 3dmax
files (one of
the programs the company works with) are very "compressable" (from 50
Mb to ~ 7Mb).

I perfectly agree with you and yes there might be monsters out there
in the ZFS on FreeBSD but the fact that us (the community) embrace the

I don't want to offend anyone or to start a war this is just my opinion.

no idea how "stable" is it, except that it work for me on one computer.

tests with ZFS and
some with UFS. On the ZFS side the most attractive thing is the backup
and of course
the easiness of administration.
don't get fooled.
if i were you i would get any motherboard with 8 SATA ports, up to 8 1TB
disks, cheapest available CPU, good PCIe gigabit cards or two.

Well if you mean a lot of disk then you mean a lot of heat, and with that comes
good cooling and with that comes fans and most of them when running at full
speed will give you some noise.
i have 8 SATA drives in one case, nothing special, and just one small fan
added for upper drives.

is that the server will stay in their office so it has to be quite silent.
I honestly don't know what hardware to look for so if you ha
