Right tool for the right job. FreeBSD's zfs implementation still has issues the last I looked. If all you want is a box of drives, zfs is designed for cheap drives, and cheap controllers, with raid-z. I didn't say _broken_ drives or controllers - just cheap, as in, feature free (ie, no fake raid shit, etc). If I'm a dotbomb millionaire, the one thing I'll sponsor is zfs in openbsd. But since I'm not... :) -- http://www.glumbert.com/media/shift http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk "This officer's men seem to follow him merely out of idle curiosity." -- Sandhurst officer cadet evaluation.
