I scrub once a week.
I think the general rule is:
once a week for consumer grade drives
once a month for enterprise grade drives.

no, if you don't use redundancy, each disk you add makes the pool that much
more likely to fair. This is the entire point of raidz .
ZFS stripes data across all vdevs.

Also consider that you might not want to snapshot the entire pool.
For instance, if you have a media server, you may have a dump dir and a
torrent dir, you probably wouldn 't want to snapshot this because it changes
a lot and the snapshots could grow very large (or you may wish to snapshot

I think most people are just confused by ACL's, i know i was when i first
started using them. Having said that, once i got them set correctly, they
work very well for my CIFS shares.

you can use one of the livecd's from genunix.

When i needed to do this, the only way i could get it to work was to do
this:
Take some disks, use a Opensolaris Live CD and label them EFI
Create a ZPOOL in FreeBSD with these disks
copy my data from freebsd to the new zpool
export the pool
import the pool

I don't know if this will help or not, or if it has anything to do with your

they were both sata drives but some were on sata controllers, and the other
