I have had really good luck with the Seagate drives as well.

I see you are running the ST4000NM0034, any reason why you didn't go with the ST4000NM0014 which is 4Kn?

thanks,

Geoff

Hey there,

I’m just about to expand my SAN with LSI 3008 HBA. As far as I know, support 
for 3008 has been in Illumos for about a year if not more, so it should be 
stable. I did have problems with getting sas3ircu and sas3flash utils from LSI 
page working, but in the end, I had to get an older version (5.00) for it to 
work (I got it from nexenta github repo).

As far as HDD goes, I’m currently running around 100 Seagate SAS3 drives 
(ST4000NM0034) and none of them died in 4 months that I have them. I know it’s 
not a long era, but so far so good:) I also have around 180 Seagate 
Constellation 4TB SATA drives (ST4000NM0033) for over 3 years and only one or 
two drives died.

Hi.

I have had good luck with the SuperStorage 6037R-E1R16L chassis with the LSI 
2308 IT mode HBA.

Thoughts on the 
http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/3U/6038/SSG-6038R-E1CR16L.cfm. It has 
the LSI 3008 HBA and Intel x540 network cards.

I want to get at least 4TB 3.5" SAS drives.  Any suggestions on those?

I will be installing the latest version of Ominos.

thanks,

Geoff
