I found the feature set offered by the AMD A75 chipset (6x SATA3,
USB3.0, 64GB of RAM) combined with an AMD A4/A6 APU to be appealing as
the basis for a home-NAS.
I don't see motherboards with this chipset listed in the Solaris HCL

Hi,
I'm building a home NAS so I don't care too much about performance,
but *do* care if I lose all my photos. I'm aware that ZFS had a very
