I've been running ZFS on FreeBSD and i've had no problems.  ZFS is still
considered experimental in FreeBSD but it's working wonderfully.  I have 3
raidz1 vdevs with 4 1tb drives each and i've had several power outages and
i've yanked out disks just to see what would happen....it's been fine.  I
used FreeBSD because there was no support for my raidcard in opensolaris
yet.  I'm using zfs on 2 other opensolaris computers but with much smaller
pools...the desktop i'm writing this on has a simple mirror of 2 250 gb
disks and a zfs laptop i have has a single no-redundancy setup.

All around i'm very impressed and satisfied with ZFS
