Based upon your message here I considered purchasing a 690G based motherboard,
but when I investigated further I was unable to find any such motherboard that
had 6xSATA connectors. Can you please tell me which motherboards you were able
to find that have 6xSATA and are based upon 69

Hi,
I am in need of a NAS at home, I am currently running Linux (ubuntu), but I
would like to have a look at opensolaris and especially ZFS and Zones. My
problem is that I don't really know what hardware to buy, since the HCL

Thanks for the reply, any help is welcome :)
Your setup differs a little bit from mine, most significantly because you have
a E-ATX motherboard with PCI-X, I want to use a microATX since they come with
on-board vga, but they only have PCI and PCI-Express. I also would like to use
a cheap s-ata

I've discovered that Nexanta is not an option:
NexentaStor Developer Edition is time-unlimited and full feature product that
can be deployed with up to one terabyte of user data.
I plan to use way more than 1TB. (For instance to keep all my dv-videos while
editing, and as raw tapes, backups of m

But what are the advantages to Nexanta over for instance
* Solaris Express Community Edition
* Solaris Express Developer Edition
* BeleniX
Is it really worth paying a couple of hundreds for when all I need is a NAS?

I choose Nexanta because it's light and slim.
Fast installation, and small distribution size.
Probably you can also install Solaris Express "headless"
without X...
Then I like the apt-get package manager, which
is very familiar to debian.
For what you want to pay a couple of hundreds?

Cant you say the same about opensolaris? Light, slim, fast install, small
distribution size ++ Headless is not a must for me. I have to admit that I like
apt-get, but it is not a must either.
I would not oppose to paying for something which gives me added value, but I
can't see all that added v

The AOC Micro PCI-X card he uses fits into an ordinary PCI slot. I am using
that card together with an ordinary [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1GB RAM. If you use that
card with a PCI slot, you will not get the full ~1GB/sec bandwidth as PCI-X
does. You will only get the normal PCI bandwidth ~150MB/sec or so
