You're quite right with what you say. I have a 2U chassis already, with a Gigabyte motherboard + 2GB RAM + Core 2 Duo E7650. I also have a few 160GB SATA HDD's laying around, but they're too small. So, I'll be option to put 6 (if I can get the HDD cages fitted into the chassis) 1TB HDD's into it instead, which with RAID 10 will give me 3TB space.

Thus, I don't want to spend more money to buy new equipment if I have this already.

Using CentOS is preferred since I know it the best. I haven't used

This thread is quite interesting, I think quite a lot of people who contributed to it dont seem to realise you can do everything using just the stock CentOS distro, and if you are using CentOS-5, the scsi-target tools will let you setup and manage iscsi targets as well.

Setup lvm on the raw drives, and get snapshot and lvm mirror support as well.
