ZFS ZFS on hardware RAID

[Deleted member 67440]

maybe because he wants a sane, coherent and secure operating system? ZFS stability is just one of the many reasons to choose FreeBSD over Debian or any other Linux GNU clusterfuck solution

Well, maybe

As a UNIX user since the late 1980s, I have seen, and used, a good portion of the systems (including... Xenix and CP/M).
I also wrote my "Linux" (when I was in college Linux didn't exist, I'm about the same age as Linus) on Alpha AXP.
90% of my servers (of my clients, which I administer) are FreeBSD, 5% OpenBSD, 3% Debian, 1% Windows and 1% Solaris.
But, just to say, Debian virtual machines boot much faster than FreeBSD.
A matter of personal taste

depends ... I'd rather have a system that has one kernel update in 2 months and needs more time for booting than having a kernel update every 10 days that needs rebooting. All in all I can say downtime due to necessary reboots of all my systems is higher on Linux compared to FreeBSD.

A matter of personal taste

of course, like with colours.

That's exactly because I write "BSD 11"
BSD 13 and Debian (/whatever zfs) are not, in my opinion, safe to use.
Too many glitch, too many strange things
BSD 12 is no better than 11 (in this field)
In very important situations, for this reason, I have Solaris machines

And BSD11 is a dead horse, because it has reached its end of life. So in the end that's no good and suitable long term solution.

Well, in fact no.
No because it simply... works
It is completely normal, at least for me, to have an uptime of 4 years or more
Since gcc works, and it is possible to compile code, there is no real reason to replace something that works with something that might work.
It should be borne in mind that I have no desktop systems, not even one

Unfortunately version 12 did not particularly satisfy me, while I consider version 13 a real disaster.
Of course, the OpenZFS change has been enormous, probably around 2025 it will begin to be trustable

I do not install kernel update, ever
In fact, in the all life of physical servers, neither a single reboot
For virtualizated, a lot more of course
