You are not required to purchase a Sun product. Just purchase a similar IBM or Adaptec JBOD product. They will work fine with ZFS. If Sun's product is over-priced, they will find out soon enough and adjust their prices. It may be that Sun initially sets the prices very high so that after they start shipping they can reduce the price and advertise the new bargian.
