Gavin Gruesome at it again

I wouldn’t want to hand it to Anthropic, but compared to the flagrant criminality of Trump it’s basically impossible to not do so.

I smashed that switch off the moment I got on ffox 148

Sorry but I find this claim irreconcilable with how SLES and Fedora default to btrfs with their installations, or how a company like Meta uses it across their entire fleet.

I don’t know if Meta uses the raid feature directly or if they use, as you suggested, mdraid with btrfs on top. I know that that’s what Synology does.

I’m not sure what you are suggesting as the alternative. Nor do I know what silent btrfs corruption bug you are referring to, either. Btrfs has been widely deployed in enterprise and personal environments for years, and I cannot find evidence of data loss due to the file system itself.

Interesting. Looks like I have some reading to do.

Damn. And I thought 3 disks was risky…

three disks to get 6tb/2=3tb of available space

Exactly! A happy outcome when using this FS.

My concern with ZFS is I use Fedora, so the kernel updates really frequently. I know that it kicks ass, but I just like having it straightforward in my kernel that I already have installed so that I never have to deal with a

If kernel module can not be loaded, your kernel version might be not yet supported by OpenZFS. An option is to an LTS kernel from COPR, provided by a third-party. Use it at your own risk:

I was unfamiliar with single mode. What advantage does it give me over RAID0 in terms of combining their capacities?

That’s a good point about scrubbing on RAID5. I don’t think I really want to spend time on that ever. RAID1 at least sounds less complex both in terms of setup and down-the-line maintenance.

with three drives, raid1 doesn’t make sense

It’s perfectly usable with a btrfs setup. If one drive fails, you can mount in a degraded state.
