basically you would add ZFS redundancy level, if you want to be
protected from silent data corruption (data corruption that could
occur somewhere along the IO path)

- XP12000 has all the features to protect from hardware failure (no-SPOF)
- ZFS has all the feature to protect from silent data corruption
(no-SPOC C=corruption)
this seems of over protection, but it's the price to pay when dealing
with large amount of data nowadays
