Hi Gour, Have you heard about the in-kernel ZFS for Linux? (http://zfsonlinux.org) project? I think there are some AUR packages for it. Thanks.

After package manager which can server both official repos & AUR,there is another thing which I consider before returning back to Arch - filesystem. On FreeBSD I now use zfs running on two 1TB disks in mirror (raid-1) mode. I'd like to have similar setup on Arch, but without using lvm2+raid-1 (if possible), so I did research a bit about zfs on Linux and it looks that the 'real' name for it is Btrfs. Afaics, btrfs will soon get fsck tool for repairing the fs, but I wonder what's the plan for btrfs support in Arch, iow, when it can become 'official' ?
