Just took a look at the TeraSolutions web page and am quite impressed :-). 
What RAID controller/etc are you using, and how much support does FreeBSD
have for it?  Also, Dell (and other vendors) has a nice feature where they
offer on-site support with varying time guarantees depending on how much
you pay--usually through contracters local to the customer--have you
considered (or already have) something like this?
