Thanks pk. You know I never thought about doing 5 drive z2's. That would be an a acceptable compromise for me between 2x 7 drive z2's as; 1) resilver times should be faster 2) 5 drive groupings, matching my 5 drive caddies 3) only losing 2TB usable against 2x 7 drive z2's 4) IOPS should be faster 5) if and when I scale up, I can add another 5 drives, in another 5 drive caddy Super! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
