@Burk Oooh! I thought it was some kind of "physical storage” boxes! I couldn't tell from the photo (it looked bigger!) -- How big is this on your desk? What capacity did you buy and fill it with?

@prologic Roughly 9in tall x 9in deep x 7in wide. I went with 24 TB in a RAID5 config.

@prologic 6Big is 6 disks. not sure on ZFS. If FZS supports RAID, I don;t see why not. I run it in HFS+

@Burk always loved the design of the LaCie disks, they are quite pricey though. How come you chose those?

@jsanchez I like their quality and design. Well designed metal vs boring plastic. Quality drives installed. No weird software to install. It’s an all around good DAS option.

@Burk sounds great, trying to find a good option to replace my WD My Cloud.
