Yes, this is a hypothetical ZFS RAID-Z pool.  As already noted, I'm getting 
that HP box with 1x2TB disk.  I have 3x1TB disks that I can use in the short 
term for a RAID set.  I want to glom together all four into a RAID-Z and then 
replace the 1TB drives once disk prices drop.  It sounds like I'll be starting 
with ~3TB RAID-Z storage which will grow to ~6TB RAID-Z once I finish replacing 
the 1TB disks with 2TB disks.

Unless... I do something wacky.  Turns out the N40L has an internal USB port 
that can be used for booting from USB flash, which means I get 5 internal 3.5" 
bays to play with. :)
