Go with the 2x7 raidz2. When you start to really run out of space, replace the drives with bigger ones. You will run out of space eventually regardless; this way you can replace 7 at a time, not 14 at a time. With luck, each replacement will last you long enough that the next replacement will come when the next generation of drive sizes is at the price sweet-spot.
