At any rate, I'm building a rather large 100+TB NAS using ZFS.
However for my OS, should I also ZFS or simply gmirror as I've a dedicated pair
of 256GB SSD drives for it. I didn't ask for SSD sys drives, this system just
came with em.
This is more of a best practices q.
ZFS has data integrity checking, gmirror has low RAM overhead. gmirror
is, at present, restricted to MBR partitioning due to metadata conflicts
with GPT, so 2TB is the maximum size.
Best practices... depends on your use. gmirror for the system leaves
more RAM for ZFS.
