Comment Comment by caillou I use 10x8TB in RaidZ 2 in my home server. TimeMachine Backup for 6 people, docker volumes and an excessively huge media collection.The TimeMachine datasets are backed up offsite.Losing this pool would be a PITA, but not critical.My primary goal with ZFS is some data redundancy. At a good cost. And quick remote backup for a fraction of the pool. Not performance.At one point, 2 disks died within 2 days. While there was some panic involved, the data on the server could be reproduced with some time.There isn’t a best solution, that fits all needs. If there was, ZFS wouldn‘t offer all the options it does. parent caillou 5 years ago
