Thank you all; > >From what I can see so far, ZFS doesn't care about the order of the drives as listed in zpool output. Just that the drives are accessible. I originally configured a server using 3x raidz2 vdevs of 8 drives each spread across 2 12-port controllers, with 4 drives from each vdev on 1 controller, and the other 4 drives from each vdev on the other controller. I've since moved the drives around so that all 8 drives of the first vdev are on the first controller, all 8 drives of the third vdev are on the second controller, with the second vdev being split across both controllers. Everything is still running smoothly. -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com
