But don't dismiss things just because you don't have enough knowledge about it.No, that would be stupid. ZFS appears as an unknown, rather complicated thing with questionable support and documentation that was written for a different OS. It won't be easy to try it out. All that just doesn't make me very keen on trying it.Sounds to me like learning resistance.No, it's not learning resistance. It's resistance against creating problems I don't need or want and against spending quite a lot of time on it. To seriously test it, I would have to delete either my data, or the backup of it, and copying it back takes hours. If I use the backup and the test gives good results, I'd use it for my data, so I'd have to copy it all again twice because I still wouldn't want the backup to be on ZFS. And it might not work because the server might not like to run the disks as JBOD. There are other decisions to be made first, too. There's also a lack of documentation. There's a guide for Linux, and it's two years old. I still shudder when thinking of the chaotic documentation xen has and all the unexpected problems I ran into ... I still dispute the lack of documentation. Just because it's 2 years old doesn't mean it isn't adequate.
