> with ZFS
Literally my only hangup. I feel like I’m playing with fire with btrfs on Synology the longer I use it. Having ZFS would put my mind at ease, and I can relegate the Synology to backup duty.
- cyberax 1y agoI'm the opposite, I don't want ZFS with it's homegrown cache (ARC) that is separate from the system. btrfs has been solid, as long as you use it with dm/md raids. I'm also waiting for bcachefs to mature a bit. It's already pretty great, but needs a bit of polish.
- pdimitar 1y agoI've been considering bcachefs multiple times. What's stopping you from using it?
- cyberax 1y agoI'm waiting for erasure coding to mature, and I also want something like TrueNAS to support bcachefs natively. One other thing is support for attributes on single files, to tweak the CoW behavior for VM images.
- sgarland 1y agoWhat do you have against ARC? It’s an extremely proven piece of tech.
- cyberax 1y agoLinux already has a memory cache that is pretty capable and tunable. ARC just ignores it. It's fine if you have a single-purpose NAS, but I prefer to use mine to host other stuff.
