Hello community,

 I have to come up with a solution for a company that has as we speak
4 TB of data spread among 3 computers with lots of HDDs. Of course
i've recommend
them to buy a server for that storage capacity and for data organization.

 I thought of going on the ZFS way (on FreeBSD of course) with some
raidz. One of the problems
is that the server will stay in their office so it has to be quite silent.

 I honestly don't know what hardware to look for so if you have any suggestions
i'm more than open to hear them.

a great day,
v
