So far SAS disks are more expensive. I think. This is for a home server.

Subject: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] A good and reliable SATA PCI
        interface for a Supermicro X7BSi MB and OI148?
Message-ID:<31113433.0.1306665305717.JavaMail.root@zimbra>

Can anyone suggest a good and reliable eSATA PCI interface for a
Supermicro X7BSi MB and OI148? Preferably 4 or 6 eSATA ports

To be used in a RaidZ2 config with 8 or 10 2TB relatively cheap disks.
4 connected to the MB SATA II ports, and 4 or 6 on the external.
Any particular reason for not using SAS with this? LSI 1068 work well and are 
affordable if not cheap. They only support 3Gbps SAS, but then, you probably 
won't need more. The LSI 1068E has external connectors.

Vennlige hilsener / Best regards
