I'll use 8 drives if I want to use what I already have on a
dysfunctional zfs server 2@500 (ide [pata] 2@500sataII 2@750sata)
I expected to buy a pair of 1TB drives. I've been running in a
mirrored setup so need 2X whatever drives I use.
I could buy bigger disks but of course, that would mean letting 6drives
I already have just set around.
If I bought 4 2tb drives I'd have about the same capacity but it would
cost around $400 (or is it cheaper for 4 2tb drivs?)
One tempting thing about the Proliant Microserver N36L, It can be
gotten damned cheap.... if this is the one you mean:
