My suggestion is:
for OS
2 disks, RAID1 which is a mirror. likely you will have no use for high
performance here, all the work will be done on the other array(s)
for samba. have you considered putting all 16 drives into 1 array, a RAID6+
hot spare? RAID6 being a RAID with 2 redundant disks. I

DOH! You are so right.
Being mainly a Windows admin, I don't think I ever was completely
clear on the difference between hardlinks and symlinks until a few
minutes ago, when I looked it up. For anyone else who is confused on

1- What filsystem I should use on the array for backuppc ?
Don't do anything with FAT or other filesystems that don't support
symlinks, BackupPC's pooling mechanism would choke on such a filesystem.
