You want to use compression and deduplication and raidz2.  I hope you didn't
want to get any performance out of this system, because all of those are
compute or IO intensive.

FWIW ... 5 disks in raidz2 will have capacity of 3 disks.  But if you bought
6 disks in mirrored configuration, you have a small extra cost, and much
better performance.
