| We've been running FreeNAS on a 48TB box and are in the process of putting together a second one. There is a web GUI which greatly simplifies setup. It does have a few quirks (every once in a while AFP seems to crap out) but for the cost of an enclosure and drives it's hard to beat. I'm trying to learn about ZFS for the second box. No 10Gb ethernet yet but it's on the radar. -Terry On Aug 12, 2013, at 4:03 PM, J Bills wrote: > Thanks everyone! > > > On Sun, Aug 11, 2013 at 12:20 PM, Søren Christensen <soren@desilence.net> wrote: > I have been pretty happy with our synology 1010+ it makes great use if bw available on our gigE net when reading/writing > > > On 10/08/2013, at 06:09, J Bills <jbillsnews@flickfx.com> wrote: > > > Hey all - looking for recommendations on a NAS that would be a good fit for a small studio, but it would see regular use of 4-8 artists I'd say.
