Hello,
I need to setup a NAS server on Centos. The machine will be:
Dual xeon/Dual Opteron
4GB memory
13x 320GB SATA + 1 hotspare
1x 320GB SATA for OS
The server can do RAID5,6,or 10.
Has anyone installed such a software and can you recommand a specific
product?
Thank you.
Unless you need all of the power of the full CentOS distro (with the
configuration overhead that goes with this), you might consider a
dedicated storage server distro such as OpenFiler:

OpenFiler hosts their web site on CentOS. :)
We are only in the testing phase, but we have been using OpenFiler as
an iSCSI target and it is working like a champ.

Yes, OpenFiler is what i had i mind but i am not sure if I should use
dedicated storage server distro like OpenFiler or a classic distro with
NFS configured afterwards.
I think I will stick to Centos 4 because I don´ t know for sure what
services will need to run on that machine.
