Re: very interesting page about ZFS
So I glanced at this page. The first thing I saw was "Storage pool (if you are used to BTRFS volumes should be familiar)". I became worried they were just Linux fanbois bashing Solaris and Unix (i.e. FreeBSD).
Then I saw "Built-in RAID-5-like-over-steroid capabilities known as RAID-Z..." and I knew they understood ZFS so they were going to treat ZFS fairly.
Thanks Raulfg3.
By the way down the page they mention FreeNAS under FreeBSD derivatives using ZFS. Think they will add a link for N4F as well?
