after the lost of one disk and and the data inside, I decide is time to take actions to prevent this again. Fisrt I think about RAID, but then I heard about zfs and I decided to investigate. I have a few question for those who use it. I will tried to answer my self too. In case a disk broke:The system will halt?The redundancy of the files is resolved automatically?Can I order a disk to be emptied? so i can disconnect it?Let's say the system stopped working:Can I move the disk to a new system?Even if it is encrypted?What kind of hardware do i need to run this with encryption?Can I share folder with samba?pd: This server willbe use for ownclud or similar and nas.
