True. This is the reason why our primary storage is an Isilon cluster supported by EMC. This is something we can't afford to have downtime with.
The NAS I was asking about is a passive backup server. If something goes wrong and ZFS asks me nicely to do do a clean boot or a scrub, we'll be perfectly okay.
Even if it is down for a few days, we can catch up from snapshots on the primary storage.
Good point about going for enterprise grade hardware instead of putting together cheap parts. Duly noted. I will buy a decent server with good support and lots of ECC memory.
