  Morning,

Apologies for the basic question but I just want to make sure. I have 
been looking at storage systems like this one 
http://www.icc-usa.com/storage-35-2u.asp. I am guessing it would be a 
case of sorting the discs out, probably on some GUI or command line for 
the box it self, then using a FreeBSD box I can set up ZFS over the 
drives...or is it not that simple?

Thanks
Chris
