Thanks Rob, one comment below.

perhaps these are good picks:

5 x (7+2)  1 hot spare  35 data disks  <- best safety
5 x (8+1)  1 hot spare  40 data disks  <- best space
9 x (4+1)  1 hot spare  36 data disks  <- best speed
1 x (45+1) 0 hot spare  45 data disks  <- max space

This one stretches the models a bit.  In one model, the MTTDL is
~1200 years and in a more detailed model, it is 6 years.  Most
people will be very unhappy with an MTTDL of 6 years.  To put
this in perspective, a 46-disk RAID-0 has an MTTDL of less than
2 years in all models.

I'd like to hear from the ZFS team how such a wide stripe would
be expected to perform :-)
