Congrats on making progress. Is this still FreeNAS or did you switch to TrueNAS Core? Yeah, 100Mb/S, or say 12MB/S takes days to move multiple Terrabytes. I did it inside of a screen session so that I could disconnect and leave it running in the background without having to watch cold molasses flow. I'm looking to upgrade everything to 2.5Gb/S or higher one of these days but once the initial backup is done regular backups are reasonably fast. I was disappointed in the info Frank found about not being able to bond Pools, but it still makes me wonder if someone could create a 14TB RAID0 outside of the pool and then bond that RAID0 with a 14TB drive to make a 14TB ZFS RAID1. Not looking to do it myself though... ;-) - Mark
