Hi there,
I'm looking to build a Mass storage device for our office.
It will be used to store Autodesk Vault 2017 files (3D drawings), Siemens TIA files, SEE-Electrical drawings and normal office files (doc, pdf, jpg, movies).
Currently it's scattered all over the place (servers, nasses and VM's).
I want to make ONE place where all the files are.
I think it is best to use ZFS RAID-Z2, and think that One pool for Autodesk and One pool for all the other files is the way to go (or should I make one big pool in RAID-Z3?)
1 10Gbit link will be to the switch
1 10Gbit link will be to the Vault Server
1 1Gbit link will connect directly to the EdgeRouter for off-site backup (100/100Mbit fiber connection, or 500/100Mbit fiber connection both sides)
The hardware:
Case: Inter-Tech 19" IPC 4U-4424 24x 2,5/3,5" hotswap (link)
Mobo/cpu: Supermicro X10SDV-4C-7TP4F-O 16x SAS/SATA, 2x 10Gbit (link)
Mem: Crucial CT2K32G4RFD4213, 2x 32GB DDR4 ecc-registered
PSU: Corsair RM850x 80 plus Gold, 8x molex
FreeNAS HDD: 2x (mirror) Crucial MX300 275GB SSD (powerloss-pretection)
ZIL/L2ARC: Samsung 960 Evo 500GB NVME
Storage: 4x Hitachi Deskstar 2TB, 4x Toshiba P300 2TB, 4x WD Purple 2TB, 4x WD Red 2TB
Cables: 4x SFF-8087 to SFF-8643
Questions:
A: Is this set-up OK?
B: 2x a raidz2 pool, or one raidz3 pool?
C: ZIL/L2ARC size ok, or need it to be bigger/smaller
D: OS (FreeNAS) on RAID SSD over-done, or smart?
E: Other remarks?
Thanks in advance!
