What are you resiliency, space and performance
requirements?
Resiliency is most important, followed by space and then speed. It's primary
function is to host digital assets for ad agencies and backups of other servers
and workstations in the office.
Since I can't make a mirrored raidz2, I'd like the next best thing. If that
means doing a zfs send from one raidz2 to the other, that's fine.
I normally use a strip of mirrors for "live" data and a stripe of raidz2
(4+2) for "backup" data. I always assign a couple of hot spares to the
pools. I also replicate important data between hosts or pools.
The replication provides resiliency during a resilver.
