I'm going to be running FreeBSD 8.x with RAIDZ. Most of what I've decided
upon / has been suggested is at
http://dan.langille.org/2010/02/10/the-file-server/
In short, I'm pretty much decided upon this case:
* Athena Power CA-SWH01BH8 Pedestal case
* http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811192058
* contains 2 SATAx4 Hot-Swap HDD bays
* sounds like good value for a case with hot swap
* got a better case?
Various suggestions have been made for the motherboard and HDD. I'm asking
you folks for suggestions based on what you know.
Here's the list of items to be selected, but feel free to suggest stuff not
listed:
* mother board
* power supply
* hard drives
* RAM
* perhaps a caching SSD
If the motherboard lacks the SATA connections, I'm probably going to use the
Syba PCI Express SATA II 4 x Ports RAID Controller Card SY-PEX40008:

Thanks.
