Yes, but I also run RAID6 so that if I lose a drive, I don't lose redundancy. I also have backups. > when your array is 10% used it's braindead > when your array is new and empty it's braindead > ZFS/BTRFS don't neeed to mirror/restore 90% nulls I like the idea of ZFS, but in my $WORK experience with Oracle ZFS arrays, it tended to fall off a cliff performance wise when pushed too hard. And I don't like that you can only grow, not shrink zvols and the underlying storage. But I'm also not smart enough to design a filesystem and make it work. :-)
