An additional point here: to an extent this depends on what you're going
to be using the system for.

I've got an old 733Mhz PentiumIII machine running the latest Nevada
build, which happily runs ZFS -- it gets used as a simple backup via
rsync server once a month or so, and happily manages ~180gb of data.

        cheers,
