I should have mentioned that I was (and still am) using XFS for my primary pool. XFS has been great, I was just hoping for a solution which would make it so I don’t have to hit my backups unless absolutely necessary (such as full array loss, for example). ZFS’ data corruption protection is very intriguing, it’s mostly the rebuild time and write speed that is making me think about doing something else.






















Raid 10 is and interesting idea for sure. It would certainly help with write speeds, although if I want to utilize the “self-healing” of ZFS, I’d need to do two (separately striped) vdevs that mirror each other to get the equivalent to RAID10, right?
