Performance is with 2x2TB mirror 80-85mb/sec write and 100+mb/sec read. All the thinks you ask for are supported like WOL and stuff. cheers patrick On 03.12.2012 07:30, Dan Carroll wrote: > Hello, > > I'm thinking of putting together a couple of custom built NAS boxes (4 > drive) to use up a plethora of SATA drives I've accumulated. > I'll be running ZFS probably in mirrored or raidz arrangements. > > I'd like to be able to get good enough performance so that things like > iSCSI are viable over my home-office lan (gigabit lan with less than 20 > devices). > > Does anyone have any suggestions on what chipset / motherboard might > have reasonable IO performance?
