Hi Robert.

If I do that I lose one SATA port out of the 4 that the motherboard has.

I want to slowly upgrade it to a Raid 1+0 system, unless there is a better option. Will ZFS on two mirrored HDDs be a viable option?

I know, but I wanted the famous speed a SSD/flash system is supposed to give for the OS. Specially given that it is an old system.

The get a 64Gb SSD internal as you primary device and put all data on a secondary drive.

Putting your OS onto a 10 GB partition on that drive will take up about 0.5% of its capacity.  It will also be much safer than having it on an external drive, especially if it's a flash drive.
