Thanks - I will proceed without using ZFS - I prefer hardware RAID.

If you use hardware RAID and ZFS, does this configuration support ZFS checksums; therefore, would be the ideal combination? I am getting ready to move my Windows Server over to Linux and would like to get the ideal filesystem right the first time. I was looking at ZFS precisely for checksums to identify bit rot. If it only does this in software RAID mode, is there any other filesystem that would accomplish using hardware RAID AND checksums?
