As far as performance is concerned, the big difference between these two configurations is for random access. The stripe of mirrors will perform much better for random access. Since you said you're doing mostly sequential (like the home movie theater situation) the raidz2 will be fine for you. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
