I've got an old P4 desktop computer running in the basement with a 1 TB external USB drive connected to that I use as a file server. That PC is running XP. It has recently become infected with some sort of virus. I'd like to replace it with FreeBSD running ZFS + Samba (I need to access it from a OS X machine and a Windows 7 box).
1) Will FreeBSD be able to detect and use my TB hard drive as ZFS disk? Right now it is only a single disk, but later on I'll and a second disk and setup a mirror. Even as a single disk, the checksumming ability would be nice. 2)Assume I get everything setup in regards to step 1 and my OS disk dies. How do I go about importing the ZFS external disk into another FreeBSD installation? Thanks for all of the help! _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
