The answer I came to, perhaps through lack of information and experience, is that there isn't a best 1.5tb drive. I decided that 1.5tb is too big, and that it's better to use more and smaller devices so I could get to raidz3.
Please explain. I don't understand how smaller devices gets you to raidz3. With smaller devices, you probably have less need for raidz3 as you have more redundancy? It's the larger drives that forces you to add more parity. -frank _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
