Get a dock for holding 2 x 2,5" disks in a single 5,25" slot and put
it at the top, in the only 5,25" bay of the case. Now add an
additional PCI-E SATA controller card, like the often mentioned PCIE
SIL3124. Now you have 2 x 2,5" disk

This is PCI-X version. Unless you have PCI-X slot, PCIe x1 version seems

Disk power use varies from about 8 watt/disk for "green" disks

Keep in mind that housekeeping of 120G L2ARC may potentially require
fair amount of RAM, especially if you're dealing with tons of small
files.

Can you check if kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.memory_throttle_count sysctl
increments during your tests?
ZFS self-throttles writes if it thinks system is running low on
memory. Unfortunately on FreeBSD the 'free' list is a *very*
conservative indication of available memory so ZFS often starts

I'm having repeated kernel panic issues on 8.0-RELEASE/amd64. Can anyone
shed light on the below error? I unfortunately cannot provide a proper crash

noticed that may be related is a watchdog timeout on bge0 error before the

Hiya
After reading some earlier threads about zfs performance, I decided to test my
own server. I found the results rather surprising...
The machine is a Dell SC440, dual core 2GHz E2180, 2GB of RAM and ICH7 SATA300
controller. There are three Hitachi 500GB drives (HDP725050GLA360) in a raidz
