Yes, I know, everyone loves to hate on RAIDZ1 but again, this is an acceptable risk since I'm not pouring money into it. So I came from individual drives with absolutely no redundancy at all to RAIDZ1 groups of 6 drives in a single zpool. So my shopping list in order to get this up has been (rough prices here): I figure by the time that happens there will be some storage technology breakthrough. That should set me up to where I can continue to buy groups of 6 drives and not run out of physical space in the case. This will allow me to run the entire Norco 20 bay off the same controller (it has like 128 data lanes) AND since there's no motherboard in the case, I can probably squeeze another 20 drives or so inside-they just won't be hot swappable. The SAS Expander doesn't require a motherboard-it's fully independent and just gets power via the PCIE slot. I'm going to use an HP SAS Expander (only $20 from eBay) and a 1x PCIE to 16x PCIE riser (similar to this ) so that I can get power to the HP SAS Expander.

Now that the server chassis is full, I ordered a Norco 20 bay case and power supply. Now I'm currently transferring my third batch of 6 drives. I setup FreeNAS and transferred data from 6 existing drives, then added those 6 to the pool. It has 12 bays, so I loaded 6 new drives in. I finally broke down recently and bought an HP DL180se for $237 with 2x quad-core Xeons and 32GB ECC RAM. Another thing is I was dreading the migration of the data. It started getting to be a pain managing data across 14 individual drives. Over the past few years I've just been buying a new 5TB external drive every few months or so and they've all been connected via USB. So this new FreeNAS setup is a definite move in the right direction for me. I hope this helps anyone who is in the same boat as me. Please don't suggest to buy new hardware because I'm making due with what I have. In summary: I know it's not perfect and I'm open for any suggestions as I'm still new to FreeNAS.

This will install to the jail's /usr/local/bin/, so if you were to access this from outside the jail, it would be at /) #".

(if you get permission errors, I found it easier to copy the archive to /tmp/ and working from there)

If you attempt to view the hard disk serial from the web UI, you'll see the same serial number for all your drives because this is coming from the RAID controller. This will give you a list of device names and gptid.

Preface: Old HP server hardware is cheap! I have over 75TB of data and not much extra cash to drum up a proper solution. Here is my experience with HP SmartArray controllers with FreeNAS.
