Hi,
I'm about to build a ten drive server for video project archiving. Here is the h/w list:
The server is going to be configured in RAID-Z2 (8+2), runnig FreeNAS (from a usb flash drive).
If all goes well, I'm planning to use a second "sister server" (exactly the same build) that will be running off-location, mirroring the first server. (I'm not exactly sure how to sync two FreeNAS servers, though...)
Any thoughts or comments appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
