It seems that Mac OS X can be installed on unraid. :)

FreeNAS (or FreeBSD) uses Bhyve as the hypervisor, not KVM.

It's unlikely OS X will run on Bhyve, but you're welcome to try.

Post and update if you manage to get it working. I've tried, and failed, several times to get OSX to run in a VM.

So we could try virtualizing freenas under ESXi and hosting an osx instance also.
Yes you can run OS X as a virtual machine in VMware, however you have to edit the ESXi local.sh file for OS X to boot. There is simple script that can be run posted in the insanely MAC forums. Search there for "unlocker"
