Yep, its also worth noting that with the capacities of drives these days you should really use raidz2 in zfs (or some double parity raid on other systems) if you are worried about data integrity. The reason being the odds of the crc checking not detecting an error are much more likely these days. The extra layer of parity pushes these odds into being much bigger

After i read ZFS papers i know that RAID-z is actually more like RAID-3 not RAID-5. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
