    Having some troubles with my NAS (Running OpenIndiana)

    No EON has not been ported to ARM. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that port you refer to of Opensolaris is really old. As far as I know Openindiana or Illumos has not been ported. https://www.illumos.org/projects/illumos-gate/wiki/Project_Ideas MIPS or ARM port gdamore / DeanoC...

    Hardware RAID6, or ZFS RAID-Z2 on JBOD?

    I would also look into striped mirror RAID-10 for better ZFS, IOPs performance compared to RAID-Z2. Yes, the performance comes at the cost of burning disks. I'm also a bit biased, but I would go with ZFS. -If your hardware dies the pool can be taken to a different machine with different...

    Having some troubles with my NAS (Running OpenIndiana)

    Is that performance writing over CIFS or NFS? Keep in mind that NFS does sync writes which lowers the performance numbers of ZFS. "minutes to build, seconds to boot, a lifetime to store" - EON http://eonstorage.blogspot.com/ http://sites.google.com/site/eonstorage/

    Small 4 bay (ZFS?) NAS advice please

    I'd say give EON a twirl (but I'm biased) simon, I'd recommend a min of an atom 330 (dual core) or better yet one of the newer intel D510 (mount olives) with 4 sata port. Asus makes a nice natural convection board with one drawback, 2 sata ports, but that may be enough with 2x2TB depending...

    A linux distro that ...well...."Poor mans Small Business Server"

    Eon YeOldeStonecat, Feel free to give EON a try, it will offer you ZFS enterprise grade storage features and for firewall features IPF, which is very similar to the rule syntax in pfsense (IIRC). http://eonstorage.blogspot.com/ http://sites.google.com/site/eonstorage/

    Intel SS4200 running FreeBSD 7.1 with 4 x 1.5 TB seagate drives

    EON ZFS storage tormorian, Are you saying if you run updimg.sh after booting from the DOM the changes are not being preserved? Are the files you changed in /mnt/eon0/.backup? I'm also a little puzzled why your static configured image from the booted USB was not copied to the DOM. The only...

    UnRaid / FreeNAS / Openfiler

    biased input I say give EON (http://eonstorage.blogspot.com) a look. Native ZFS storage. Can run from RAM booted from USB or CF. Requires getting your hands a little dirty but worth for the freedom and performance gained. Pretty soon it will have de-duplication! No special controllers needed...

    EON ZFS Storage 0.59.5 based on snv 125 released!

    Great feedback Good to here from you 00Roush, Thanks for the feedback. As always great info. The intermittent flushing is part by design and could be part because you've reached buffering limits + max speed of the pool (as you stated). Sometimes you can see it, when it is a network...
