Which all file systems do dragonfly support?
I am planning to set up a backup server with 2 500GB hard disks on RAID 1
the problem with UFS large partitions is the time they take to fsck
after an unclean shutdown. I think ZFS in FreeBSD solves this problem
for BSDs. Also is RAID FRAME available in dragonfly? if not what is
available for software raid?
Also is there an amd64 version of dragonfly?
Thanks

Hammer does not have have long fsck periods; that was one of the design
goals.

There's no software RAID as part of Hammer right now; you could use CCD or
maybe vinum?  This isn't directly helpful, but I usually favor hardware
RAID when possible.

The AMD64 version is in progress right now as a Summer of Code project.
