Hi,
First thanks for everyone who responded, very helpful.

One 2 more questions/clarifications:
1. As many mentioned 2008/3008 LSI HBA I searched (for lsi sas hba 24
ports) and found many but with lsi i/o controller other than 2008/3008, for
example 3224)..it seems 2008/3008 are more popular in 8port hba cards.
2. I got That as much ram is better however I saw almost no docs /
recommendations and how to estimate CPU.. So I need more clarification on
how to size CPU with the following configurations ZFS for raidz2, all
without dedup:
A) lz4 compression.
B) encryption (I must say I still not quiet know what are my options)
C) A+B

Thanks,
Sami
