Folks:
Thought you all might be interested to know we've just built a
"Backblaze Pod" (see
http://blog.backblaze.com/2009/09/01/petabytes-on-a-budget-how-to-build-cheap-cloud-storage/)
running Fedora 12 and your latest (as of yesterday) GIT kernel snapshot.
We mounted *all 45 disks* into one huge 62Tb btrfs RAID10 filesystem,
and so far it works just great!
I'd be interested in your comments as to pitfall, problems you all see
in creating such a huge btrfs file system...
