I've very in-frequently seen the RAMSAN devices mentioned here. Probably
due to price.

However a long time ago I think I remember someone suggesting a build it
yourself RAMSAN.

Where is the down side of one or 2 OS boxes with a whole lot of RAM
(and/or SSD's) exporting either RAMdisks or zVOLs out over iSCSI, FCoE,
or direct FC (can OS do that?)

If the RAM and/or SSD's (or even HD's) ere large enough this box might
be able to serve several other ZFS servers. A dedicated Network, or
direct connections if there are enough ports, should eliminate the net
from the being a bottle neck.

A sub $100 UPS (or 2) could protect the whole thing.

I'm sure I'm missing something, but I'm not seeing it at the moment.
Anyone else have any ideas?
