Right now, except for the resilver, it's doing nothing.  For about 8
hours a day it's copying data from production servers.

It's a Random Box of Parts with 16 1.5TB disks running OpenSolaris
(which I've come to discover is weird and strange and I dislike it).
Its sister server is FreeBSD with 24 2TB disks, and I haven't yet had
to replace a drive, but I'm hoping it won't take six days.
