The system (CPU/Board) is on my bench right now for testing, figured i'd dropped the HBAs in there to test this JBOD I just finished putting together, I'm not sure the final motherboard or cpus but likely similar or newer 2P setup.
2P SM Motherboard w/2x E5-2670 v1's with 3x LSI HBA connected to JBOD SM chassis with 24x SSD in it (6x 8087 internal w/external 8088 adapter)/no expander.
Potentially a 4th HBA or PCIE device for ZFS SLOG device -- which, on this board will have to go on another CPUs PCIE slot.
I want to compare ZFS on Linux, ZFS on OmniOS and mdadm on linux before deploying this larger setup. The setup will be a pool of mirrors on zfs and raid 1+0 mdadm.
