I'm in the market for a new NAS and would like to see who uses what?
I need something that is rackmountable, and preferably within 2U - 4U space limit.
It needs to have 2x (or more) GBe NIC's - 10GBe addon would be nice
minimum 8 drives, upto 24 - SATA & SAS
redundant power supplies
Needs to support RAID6 & RAID10 with EXT3/4 (EXT4 is preferred), ZFS and XFS
needs to allow multiple different RAID set's - for example 1x RAID1 with SAS, 1x RAID10 with SATA & 1x RAID6 with SATA
I got a few Thecus 8800PRO's recently, and they seem nice but I'm not too impressed with them. Support is also non-existent.
At the same time I had a look at the Netgear ReadyNAS 3200 & 4200's but they would have cost'ed twice of what the Thecus costs me and they don't support RAID10
