Not sure if that makes a difference and also not sure about the rebuild times for both cases.
SSD rebuilds are typically insanely fast. But RAID 10 rebuilds typically don't matter due to insanely high reliability and low impact from rebuilding. Worrying about the time to rebuild is a RAID 5/6 problem. Once you have RAID 10, you normally stop talking about time to rebuild because you can keep using the system just fine while it rebuilds.

SBS2008 setup
BURN IT WITH FIREVirtual gives you more options for migration later. It gives you more options for backup and recovery.

A VPN adds overhead and latency
You sir, have not seen what a pair of Brocade MLXe's can do with a dark fiber connection. A fully loaded chassis could push 1.2Tbps of IPSEC traffic at wire speed.
Shitty consumer grade, no crypto ASIC stuff? Yah, there are limits. The latency your complaining about? That's likely from trying to run UDP real time protocols WITHOUT configuring datagram TLS? OUCH. Yah that's gonna suck. Use a real VPN appliance that will support dTLS.

What is the cost of stuff like that? Recall that most people here come from SMBs where we are now recommending ER-L firewalls that cost $150 or less.

I don't think that was the point of his post.

Expensive. But again, that wasn't his point. ASIC offloading and dTLS aren't only available in those. Ubiquiti does crypto ASIC. Last place I worked we did 3D CAD with SolidWorks over ZeroTier and it wasn't bad. There is likely some serious tuning that could be done here.

ZeroTier looks pretty dope. I'm curious to set this up and see how well it behaves.

A lot of us have used it, it's a really cool product. Their founder is here in the community, too.

As for Sharepoint - You don't get that much storage in Sharepoint in O365, so you'll likely be paying for more storage there. Sharepoint also has a number of files per site limit, just something else to watch out for.
For future reference to anyone wondering, I spoke to three different O365 reps today and they said the limit has been bumped to 1 million items so we'll be good for a while!

That's a bit more!
