I've seen the page with the pics of that server, and I agree with this issue.
So I'd like to try to reverse half of the disks too, how would you advice to do
this?
My current setup is as follows, where up is normal disk upside paced, and down
is with upside plate down and electronics side up:

Unfortunately it only comes with 4 adapters, bare metal adapters without any
dampering /silencing and so on...
...anyway I wanted to make it the most silent I could, so I suspeded all the 10
disks (8 sata 320gb and a little 2,5 pata root disk) with a flexible wire,

bought it from an italian online store, and I think it's commercialized in
Germany, it has 9 51/4 frontal slots

raidz1 pool.
With dclarke's test it easily got 50MB/s in the first (mad
The onboard one is the controller that's in the nVidia 430 south bridge:
pci bus 0x cardnum 0x0e function 0x00: vendor 0x10de device 0x0266

pci bus 0x cardnum 0x0f function 0x00: vendor 0x10de device 0x0267

Hi all, I just built a new zfs server for home and, being a long time and avid
reader of this forum, I'm going to post my config specs and my benchmarks
hoping this could be of some help for others :)
