On this I'm running F20 rather than C6 primarily for the better BTRFS

disks in a BTRFS pool with a raid1 profile ...
my Microserver N40L home server runs FreeNAS on a USB stick stuck into the internal slot. ZFS on the 4 3TB drives, and a USB drive as a hotspare (lame, I know, but better than nothing). eventually it will get a eSATA card and a 4-bay esata expander
Let's not get into a ZFS/BTRFS debate :P
I do like the idea about the expander though ... power might be an issue given it's a low power PSU that comes with it - would probably have to swap that part out.
