  1. OP, did you ever get it running with this hardware? I'm planning a build with the same hardware for freenas and I want to see if xpenology will work with it in case It becomes too much of a headache (zfs sounds like a pain to deal with)
  2. Have you tried running baremetal? I don’t want to use esxi on this system
  3. I'm looking to purchase a 12-bay Dell R720XD Server with 2x Intel Xeon E5-2630 2.30GHz - 6 Core processors & 16GB RAM. it includes a H710. This system will primarily be my iSCSI data store for my VMware Cluster test lab. I want speeds around 2000 read/write or higher if possible. I plan on having: 8-10 drive sata SSD raid 0 array for my data store (may go with a raid 10) 2 drive raid 1 (backup target for my other xpenology system in case of catastrophic failure on that one) My Question(s): 1. Has anyone gotten this system to work without major issues? 2. Can I use the h710 or should I look into an adaptec 1000-8i (or 2) 3. is there another card that will achieve the speeds I'm looking for? - Ive currently got an LSI card in my other machine but I do not like how the drive ordering doesn't function properly. 4. Are these speeds possible on this machine? Synology has the new high end flash storage servers I hope to mimic that with this system.
  4. I'm Looking into one of these as well. Have you purchased yours, and have you gotten xpenology loaded with minimal issues? I've got a Supermicro 2U X8DTU-F 24 bay running about 12 drives now with 10g iSCSI to my VMware Cluster, but I'm looking to upgrade so I can get better speeds off more SSDs in raid 0 I'm capped at about 800mb read on 4 SSDs. I'm hoping the PCIe 3 and a Adaptec 1000 series card in addition to a couple more SSDs will bring me to the 1500 mark.
