I actually fitted the RAID card last night and right now, the machine spins up with 5 1TB and 1 1.5TB drives in place. The other 1.5 I'm saving for my desk at work (I have 2TB on there at the moment and fully intend to replicate important changes to that disk on a regular basis). I has to have an e-SATA port multiplier, but I don't see that as an issue.
Next question is where all of this is going in the flat. I'm wondering what happens if I move disks around within the zpool... as in they get a new name as they're on a different port. Of course, I could just mark which disk is on which port.
