Once production is done, to save space, I FLAC everything (or WavPack it when
it's more than eight channel or 24 bit).

Haven't tried the OS X packages but you should be able to add an HBA and a
supermicro (or other) enclosure and do it much the same as with Linux or
BSD.
It looks like the OS X builds are actively maintained still. That said
there's many more folks using Solaris, Linux and BSD.

Ah i forgot about ZFS RAID Z.
Has anyone had success using it on random enclosures with mac osx?

Hereabouts we are very enamored of the 4 disk FreeNAS Mini appliance,
which is a hardware+software solution that includes ZFS.

and space (only 1 drive in each array is used for parity).
If you need a little cloud storage then mega g

An HP Microserver with FreeNAS is a great way to get a ZFS cluster running.
ZFS is a great filesystem for archiving media. I have machines running
pools ranging from 500GB to 144TB.
They can scale and grow really easily.
You can run pretty nicely with a cheap i3 CPU and a decent LSI HBA. A 16 TB
