You might want to look at the blog of someone named Simon Breden: http://breden.org.uk/2008/03/02/a-home-fileserver-using-zfs/ I followed his blog when I was doing much the same. He covers all the useful topics (from choosing the hardware to management techniques) and is very helpful if you ever need to contact him.
