Anybody? I would truly appreciate some general, if not definite insight as to what one can expect in terms of I/O performance after adding new disks to ZFS pools. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@open

[zfs-discuss] Disk I/O in RAID-Z as new disks are added/removed

Hello, As I understand it, in a traditional RAID 5 setup adding new disks to the pool provides more overall I/O as the load is spread out across multiple disks. What exactly is this relationship in a RAID-Z setup? What should one expect in terms of overall I/O performance as disks are added and
