The goal is to replace my current NAS which isn't full (and is only 9TB) but is very slow CPU. This will allow me to not only get more usable storage (which I don't even remotely need now) but more importantly consolidate two older servers into one box and allow me to run some virtual machines with some fast storage with snapshotting and data consistency. Plus it is just fun and got it dirt cheap when you consider the specs.
This looks like a really satisfying project. I can't ever imagine needing to store that much data, though. My life's work (including any photographs worth saving) fits on a micro-sd card smaller than a fingernail. Kind of humbling.
That first picture is making me really nervous. You might be giving new meaning to the term "Hard Drive Crash."
How much electricity is this going to use when it's finished?
