Thanks. Are u using the WD N1X to store your VM's on, since u are using ESXi? Do u use ZIL/L2ARC?
I kinda want to use the same setup, but I want to go for 3x4TB with 16GB ECC memory in a RAIDZ1 setup.
Not sure if 3x4TB is a really smart setup, since it's 3 drives only. Using 3 disks only will make the setup more efficient cause of the lower amount of watt's being used, but that's basically the only true benefit I think.
Not sure if that's the way to go, im totally new to FreeNAS, and this board really looks promising :)
