OK so I read the very helpful newbie PDF / understand ECC= mandatory and RAIDZ is dead, so got the following parts arriving... very excited!
ASRock C2550D4I quad-core
Kingston 2x8GB 1600MHz DDR3 ECC (KVR16LE11L/8)
Seasonic 450w Gold PSU
Fractal Design Define R2 (8 bays) with 2 front 140mm fans
VDEV 1 / ZPOOL 1 - mass storage
6x 4Tb Hitachi NAS in RAIDZ2
VDEV2 / ZPOOL2 - iSCSI (vmfs for cluster aware FS) for VM storage
2x Sandisk Ultra Plus 256Gb SSD in mirror
The only plugins I plan on running are transmission and plex. I may/may not bother with plex depending on load/performance. Anecdotal evidence is that a single Avoton core ~ Core2Duo performance and that the quad core is able to handle at least 1 plex transcode @ 1080p hi profile.
