I have a lot of these chips. http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K10/AMD-A ... GMBOX.html
Do you think it could handle ZFS-Z3 ?

Should be sufficient.
I did a test with RAID-Z2 a while back, but should give you an idea :-

That's some good data to have. I'm seeing nearly identical performance on a very oldRedAntz wrote:Should be sufficient.

E4300 C2D I have running, so I am sure the much newer athlon can hold it's own.
My only worry is about transfer speed while a patrol read is going on.
If you ever have a chance of testing your speeds during a patrol read it would be interesting.

I use a Athlon X2 245 (see my signature) - and have in best case up to 110MB/s (average 70-80 Mb/s) with a RaidZ1.

make sure that you are using ecc memory and that the motherboard supports it.

Same case (almost) here... I have a 240e and I have an average of 65-70 MB/sec with RaidZ1apollo567 wrote:I use a Athlon X2 245 (see my signature) - and have in best case up to 110MB/s (average 70-80 Mb/s) with a RaidZ1.
