Warning: a Mac Mini does not have eSATA ports for external storage.  It's 
dangerous to use USB for external storage since many (most? all?) USB->SATA 
chips discard SYNC instead of passing FLUSH to the drive - very bad for ZFS.

Dell's Zino HD is a better choice - it has two eSATA ports (port multiplier 
capable).
