While you might be right about that, I think there is a need for a good shared experiences site, howtos, etc. For example, I want to put a new 2U 12 disk storage system together. I'll use a Supermicro chasis, but I wonder what is best for: - AMD or Intel? - Is the AOC-SAT2-MV8 still the best SATA controller or should I get a LSI card. - The AOC-USASLP-S8iR has battery back cache option. Will this work with Solaris? Which release? Can it do JBOD? Will the battery back cache actually be useful? - Then of course there is all the SSD options. Which SSD units are better for write/ZIL, which is better for read/L2ARC? All these questions are pretty general, and being asked often. I think it would be good to find some way to consolidate this stuff. Nicholas
