These parts are on the way, but I can still swap stuff if needed.

4 x Kingston 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1333 Server Memory Server Hynix M Model KVR13E9/8HM
1 x SUPERMICRO MBD-X9SCL-F-O LGA 1155 Intel C202 Micro ATX Intel Xeon E3 Server Motherboard
1 X Intel Core i3-2130 Dual-Core Processor 3.4 GHz 3 MB Cache LGA
1 X Lian Li PC-P50
1 X SAS9211-8I 8PORT Int 6GB Sata+sas Pcie 2.0
2 x CSE-M35T-1B Black 5x3 Disk Cage
1 X Seasonic SS-560KM Active PFC F3

My plan is to run 10 X 3TB drives in RAIDZ2 in a single Vdev for 24TB useable (give or take). I realize this may be a little wide. I'm thinking of using 8 X WD RED drives for data together with 1 X Constellation and 1 X RE4 for parity.

This is my first build, so any gotchas or other thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Hi ClownFeet,

I don't see anything at all wrong with your setup.

Keep in mind that the parity is distributed, so you don't have dedicated "parity" drives.

Might want to head over to monoprice.com for some SFF-8087 cables...maybe score some matching SATA cables while you are there.
