I'm looking for community input on this setup.
Hardware
Server: Dell R620
CPU: 2x E5-2670
Mem: 32GB
HBA: Dell HBA330
Network: 2x 10Gb SFP+, 2x 1Gbe
Disks 1-4: Samsung Evo 500GB SSD
Disks 5-8: Samsung Evo 1TB SSD
Software
FreeNAS 11.2 RC2
Configuration
10Gb SFP+ connections in LACP for use with iSCSI and NFS
1Gbe for web management
Disks 1-4 in mirrored pair (net 1TB usable) for iSCSI to run VM operating systems. This will also host MySQL database within some OS.
Disks 5-8 in mirrored pair (net 2TB usable) for NFS for shared data to be mounted on OS. This is for use with web hosting, so lots of small file reads and writes.
Notes
No ZIL, SLOG, or L2ARC at this time. Should I get one for this configuration?
Installation
This server will be installed in a large datacenter with backup battery services. In the 5 years I've been in this DC, they haven't experienced a any power outages.
