    Solved Strange ZFS status

    This is a strange one: I've recently reinstalled FreeBSD 14.0 on an old, non-mission critical PowerEdge R710. Two zpools were created, zsystem and zdata. Since the old BIOS doesn't give me a JBOD option, the pools were created with megaraid virtual devices all attached to the same controller...

    Collect the zfs raid out of different discs

    Hi, I have 5 old disks each of them of different size, cache, date of production and even vendor. How can I "truncate them to provide redundant storage"? is it even possible? Or I should buy 2 same brand new disks?
