I have a media fileserver running with Windows XP at the moment, but I would
like to change to ZFS because of the safeguards, since I lost a bunch of HD
movies a few weeks ago - not because of a bad drive, but a bad drive cable!

I have read the FAQ, and it states that encrypted data can't be compressed. But
is there any point in using compression on my media file server, that will
store ripped DVD's (which are compressed in their default state), our digital
photos (JPEG - also compressed) and HD files (mostly .ts (trans

Thanks for the quick answer! That's exactly what I suspected. Btw I'm looking
around for hardware demands on this system, and I have problems finding
anything. I was thinking about using an AMD XP2600 on a VIA KT-4 mobo wich has
a few S-ATA ports, three IDE connections and an extra IDE card. Har

I just build a system with Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5 and 6 SATA2 drives. One
system Seagate ES 250Gb disk, 5 Seagate ES 500Gb disks. 2.2Tb with raidz.
Seems to work well with Nexenta. I could have put 5 ES 750Gb drives instead
and had another TB. All in a midi-tower with an Athlon 3800+. This

Is the Gigabyte SATA2 controller recognised by Solaris?
Nexenta v6 seems to work. Based on the Nforce 55 chipset I believe. I
assume Opensolaris will work since it is based on that.
I couldn't tell you if NCQ works, as Solaris is pretty new
I'm setting up a media server with ZFS, if I'm lucky... The ACL part of the
administration guide has made my head feel like it has inherited the
appendicitis I had two weeks ago... So is there a simpler guide somewhere?
I'll explain what I want to do: I have a few different levels of users in my

Not that I have found :-)

Had to install xserver-xorg-core, but thanks to apt it was relatively easy.
Bit of interest is probably:
pci bus 0x cardnum 0x0d function 0x00: vendor 0x10de device 0x037f
nVidia Corporation MCP55 SATA Controller
CardVendor 0x3458 card 0xb002 (Card unknown)
STATUS0x00b0 COMM
Note also I have the BIOS set to AHCI mode for the SATA controllers, not
IDE.

Interesting, 'cat /etc/driver_aliases | grep 373' shows nothing!
Have you tried the hardware detection tool on this system?
