Zfs will not suffer from power outages, mos it is the physical parts.

Yes ZFS is incredible resilient. Look at this video. Crazy I know. Just don't do this at home:).

Another quick question about RAM before I order. I came across Samsung M391A2K43BB1-CRC as possibly compatible with the X11SSL-CF. It's a lot cheaper than that Crucial memory. What dou you guys think?

I would just order them. Even tested memory modules on the SuperMicro list are not guaranteed to work with every board. As far as I know in Belgium you have the same rights to return webshop purchases (herroepingsrecht) within 14 days as in the Netherlands. So buy in a webshop. Besides of that: Samsung modules will likely work.
