    Omnios

    Hi Gea, I thank you for your reply. I did make another choice for my storage: i went for Freenas 8.x. Reason: the commercial support. BTW: one of the main developers of OI decided to quit recently... When i do have some spare time i will test omnios to see if it's a freenas alternative.
