As others have said, it depends on your definition of "enterprise-grade". We're using Dell's MD1200 SAS JBOD's with Solaris-10 and ZFS. Ours have the Seagate 2TB "Nearline SAS" drives. The 3Gbit Sun SAS HBA, using mpt driver, works fine, although with a stream of harmless warning messages about "unknown event 10 received". The newer 6Gbit Sun/Oracle SAS HBA, using mpt_sas driver, works well without that issue. The only special tuning I had to do was turn off round-robin load-balancing in the mpxio configuration. The Seagate drives were incredibly slow when running in round-robin mode, very speedy without.
