and from initial appearances / testing, it runs pretty darn well, too. 
We only have ~2T on our test environment so far over 3 machines, so it's 
certainly nothing large.

I haven't tried backuppc on it yet, but storing mail in maildir folder 
works well, and virtual machine images work well.

being able to say "I want to have 2 copies of anything in this directory 
and 3 copies of anything in this directory" is very nice. So is being 
able to put half your servers in one building and half in another.  
Failing a disk and watching all the unmet goals (goal = min # of copies 
of something) get resolved is fun as well.


Now, to convert the media machine at home...
