Pick yourself up an MD3060e and fill it with 12-16tb hgst SAS Drives. Pair them up as 4+2 or 8+2 raidz2 groups based on your risk tolerance and needs, and remember that no matter how small you prune your data, it will continue to grow. Make sure you have plenty of capacity to grow into. If you haven't got an accurate projection of your growth, then you should provision between two and ten times what you think you'll need, depending on how much growth capacity you have in your hardware, and then calculate your actual growth rate for future planning
