Currently I am have 10 disks of same model from the same manufacturer in my pool. My question is three fold and I am trying to figure out answers and/or implications
1. Does ZFS take care of different disk size/geometry that come with same size disks from different manufacturers? a 1TB disk from one manufacturer may or may not be exactly the same size as 1TB disk from another manufacturer. How does that slight size different effect when I try to replace a bad disk in a pool with another one? 2. What would happen (if anything) if I try to replace a 1TB disk in a pool with a 1.5TB disk? does the extra 0.5TB get wasted and the system treats this new disk as 1TB? 3. Same as above but now say I have a pool with 1TB disk and one disk goes bad, the new disk is 750GB. Would it even let me do that? Are there cases where I can? Say, if the pool is not almost full?
