The FreeBSD 9 base makes it really hard to mount ext4 drives (no FUSE until 10), the security patching regime relies on upgrading the whole rootfs (see the SSH client vuln today) and I'm in unfamiliar territory on a BSD having used Linux for the last decade.
- benjaminl 11y agoI am running ZFS on Linux and it is working great for me. ZFS on Linux is considered production ready[0]. A lot of the showstoppers, like being able to boot from ZFS have been worked out. [0] - https://clusterhq.com/2014/09/11/state-zfs-on-linux/ https://clusterhq.com/2014/09/11/state-zfs-on-linux/
- XorNot 11y agoHere here for ZFS on Linux as well. My home server is built in one of these http://www.u-nas.com/product/nsc800.html http://www.u-nas.com/product/nsc800.html with a C2550D4I motherboard and 8 4TB drives in RAIDZ2. Runs great, and I've got the drives configured for spin-down when not in use to conserve power. It's the successor to the 20-disk system I setup while I was still at my parents house, though that's a lot noisier (but fortunately lives in the basement service room) - downside is it's all based on 1.5 and 2TB disks, upside is RAIDZ3 is really nice to have.
