Hello,
I have some questions and it would be great, if someone knows the answers.
1.) Does a Phenom II 955 (4x 3,2GHZ without AES-NI) have enough computing power to use the full gbit lan bandwidth with a RaidZ1 and 5 SATA disks? I've read something 20% performace loss per HDD without AES-NI.
2.) My target is an encrypted RaidZ1 running five WD Red 3TB. I also own four USB3-3TB-HDDs able to read and write with 170 MB/s. It is possible to directly backup the NAS data to the USB3-HDDs using the USB3 ports of the NAS?
3.) If that is possible, will I be able to encrypt that USB3-HDDs?
4.) Is it possible to run any freeBSD compatible Software in a jail? I have BOINC and XBMC in mind.
5.) Moving the ZIL to a SSD does increase the performance if there are many synchronous operations. If I'm using the NAS mainly for streaming, saving Desktop data and backups, would I benefit from the SSDs or is it just for DB accesses and so on?
6.) Can I use the same SSD for ZIL and jails?
7.) Can I mirror the two SSDs so I'm not loosing my ZIL if a SSD breaks?
8.) Is it possible to run a headless freeNAS sever without any graphiccard? (Xeon E3-1230v2)
9.) Does freeNAS support the P4000 gpu of the Xeon E3-1245v2?
