I'll try to think of some others.
Honestly the best way is to start tinkering and see how it works for you as it can depend heavily on what you're using it for.
But yes there is a lot of FUD out there.
One thing to beware of, RAIDZ1/2 is limited to the IOPS of one drive per VDEV... Can be quite limiting for some things.
- zepearl 6y agoThank you! Didn't know that website - it has a lot of interesting stuff. Ok, I'll then do some tests and will see how the RAIDZ behaves.
- seized 6y agoRead up on IOPS vs VDEVs and ashift, ashift has some important considerations for space consumption and performance and future drive replacement. You almost always want ashift=12.
