    MP 1,1-5,1 Use Mac Pro as NAS/RAID with more than 8 hard drives?

    Hi all, I'm in need of a NAS with large capacity and redundancy (RAID) but I have limited money and want to upgrade it over the next few years.

    Adam Leventhal's blog » ZFS: Apple’s New Filesystem That Wasn’t

    From 2006-2009 ZFS was to be Apple's new filesystem… and Wikipedia tells us that Apple's ZFS project closed in 2009, but that was not the end of the story.
