There's a lot of discussion of dedup performance issues (including problems
backing out of using it which concerns me), but many/most of those involve
relatively limited RAM and CPU configurations. I wanted to see if there is
experience that people could share using it on with higher RAM

Stay away from the 24 port expander backplanes. I've gone thru several
and they still don't work right - timeout and dropped drives under load.
The 12-port works just fine connected

Hello,
I have been researching building a home storage server based on
OpenSolaris and ZFS, and I would appreciate any time people could take
to comment on my current leanings.
I've tried to gather old information from this list as well as the
HCL, but I would welcome anyone's experience

found a working setup and I cloned it. It gives me 16x SATA + 2x SATA

without disks was ~ $1k I believe.
