looking to build a box for holding 5 to 8 TB of storage using nexentastor OS. without using commercial solutions like netapp.

my current list is:

Intel Xeon

8GB of RAM

RAID controller with 256MB cache

what to choose for disks? can any sigle server host more than 5TB disks? Dell Poweredge? HP DL or ML Series?
