So many ZFS fans. In my personal opinion, BTRFS is the better fs.
Yes, raid5 is broken, but synology figured out how to bypass the limitation. And it just works, pretty fast, without crazy RAM requirements, easy expandable.
ZFS is over engineered, mainly to solve slowness of spinning rust. Fol the all SSD pool, ZFS with a slog and unnecessary overheads is a sub-optimal choice.
Even for homelabbers, since many of HL just disable sync to squeeze some performance out of the ZFS all SSD pool.
In your videos. Why don't you link to your sources of infomation?
I'd like to read/watch further content on the topics you cover. It would probably help myself and others understand the things you describe.
Pool extension for single drive is fantastic.. been waiting years for it well done
I don't know if it's this, but I've had issues with TrueNAS taking forever to boot when virtualised on XCP-ng with more than one SATA controller passed through to it. Not sure if that's the issue in that person's case, but mine's taken so long that I said 'screw it' and am working on a less-than-ideal controller (one PCIe lane for 6 drives, and I'm pretty sure it's gen1) until I can get a single controller with multiple lanes. I don't even know 100% how long mine takes with multiple SATA controllers, because at some point I gave up every time. It was at least 15-20 minutes though.
Can you go from a two drive mirror to a three drive RaidZ1?
I'm really interested in HA NAS setups so Ceph has been in my research. My need is not necessarily 100% uptime without interruption and intervention, but something that will keep things up when I'm out of town for weeks despite a boot drive failure, etc.
Will we be able to find 404?
