That seems a bit harsh :). If you pay for "50GB of data storage" and you upload 50GB of data, how are you getting ripped off? Even if there's a magic fairy in the background that makes your 50GB of data only actually take up 40GB of service provider storage? So conversely, if one provider is using two-way mirrors, and another provider is using three-way mirrors, given a "50G" quota, should you be able to upload less data on the second provider because it's actually using "more storage" on the backend to actually store? I'm not quite seeing the connection you are making between "advertised" storage capacity sold and "behind the curtain" technical details of the actual technology by which it is stored and literal space it is taking up… ------------------------------------------- openzfs-developer Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/274414/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/274414/28015062-cce53afa Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=28015062&id_secret=28015062-f966d51c Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
