hmmmm
The latest stable version of freeNAS doesn't support growing of RAID 5 arrays -- so that's out.
I may try the nightly build, since it has support for ZFS and RAID-Z (basically a more bulletproof RAID 5) ... I just don't like being a guinea pig -- but I guess worth trying out to see if it'll serve the media I put on it.... If so, that'll be ideal
BTW... ZFS is what gives Apple it's Time Capsule some of it's capabilities.. much nicer than leaving it to the gods to determine what lives and dies on your HDD.
*waits patiently for NOS to chime in on ZFS* :P
