I'm being a bit of a dunderhead at the moment and neither the site search
nor
google are picking up the information I seek...

I'm setting up a thumper and I'm sure I recall some discussion of the
optimal
number of drives in raidz1 and raidz2 vdevs. I also recall that it was
something
like you would want an even number of disk for raidz1, and an odd number for
raidz2 (so you always have an odd number of data drives). Have I remembered
this correctly, or am I going delusional? And, if it is the case, what is
the
reasoning behind it?

Thanks,
