Hi Matt, That is a very helpful explanation that brings and area of possible improvement. Right now there's no way to tell what snapshots to delete to get the space back. Only way is to delete a snapshot and then see if a USED of snap increased. Anyway, thanks for the explanation! Best

can I use any 2TB drive?  Even the WD that lie about their sector size?   Speed is not really of any importance here. Yes, you can. The WD will lie and say it's 512-byte sectors, and you'll get misaligned reads/writes and performance will suffer but it will work. I also need another vdev to

Thanks. I hadn't come across the Hitachi's They certainly seem to have a price premium associated with them - but I suppose that is to be expected. I was sort of looking towards 'greener' drives since performance wasn't a large factor for either of these vdevs. Seems too bad all the

I had not really considered that. I was going under the assumption that 2TB drives are still too big for a single vdev in terms of resilver times if there is a failure. I also have a 20 bay case, so I have plenty of room to expand. So I wold keep my 1TB drives around anyhow. Thanks for the
