Hi all!
I've decided to take the "big jump" and build a ZFS home filer (although it
might also do "other work" like caching DNS, mail, usenet, bittorent and so
forth). YAY! I wonder if anyone can shed some light on how long a pool scrub
would take on a fairly decent rig. These are the specs as-ordered:

Asus P5Q-EM mainboard
Core2 Quad 2.83 GHZ
8GB DDR2/80

OS:
2 x SSD's in RAID 0 (brand/size not decided on yet, but they will definitely
be some flavor of SSD)

Data:
4 x 1TB Samsung Spin Point 7200 RPM 32MB cache SATA HD's (RAIDZ)

Data payload initially will be around 550GB or so, (before loading any stuff
from another NAS and so on)

Does scrub like memory, or CPU, or both? There's enough horsepower
available, I would think. Same question applies to resilvering if I need to
swap out drives at some point. [cough] I can't wait to get this thing built!
:)

Regards & TIA,

Your just-subscribed total ZFS n00b,
