Tried to understand a couple of space calculators on line that are suppoded to show the rough space you end up with using the different zfs raid configs.
I will have 8 2tb drives that I'd like to run in raidz2. My usual setup has always been 1 to 1 matching mirrored disks. So the loss in space that way is bit over 8TB or 50% and a bit more I think. If I understood the space calculator correctly it says I'll have nearly 11 tb usable out of the 16 raw. That is quite a bit more space than 1:1 mirrors. Can anyone who actually uses raidz2 verify if the figures sound about right? _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
