Just so that I'm absolutely clear, would I be correct in thinking that
eSATA is preferred over USB-3, assuming SAS

All good ideas, and I agree, probably better in a commercial environment.

Ah, that is what I feared, but thanks for confirming it.
Consider ZFS on Linux or FreeBSD if you need USB-3 and ZFS within the next
year.

Hello,
I have asked these same questions in the past. The problem is
Hi all,
Hopefully a very quick question here: is USB3 supported yet, and if so, what
2+ port cards are recommended? I'm specifically talking about using ZFS on
external hard drives, and am thinking of using SmartOS if that helps. The
USB card would be going into a PCIe slot in my Ultra 20 M2.

Also consider eSATA since that can be supported by OpenIndiana and is

The electrical and protocol specification for esata is the same as sata.
E-SATA cables I think need to be shielded. The only difference

USB-3 is not supported yet. I have not heard of anyone working on it.
The day is coming where USB3 or 3.1 is going to be the standard for
motherboards, and it's going to be difficult to find a MoBo with USB2.
