Hello again, Sorry for all the questions but i want to start somehwere, the forums take a while for me to get approved but it seems very friendly here. So when i installed freeBSD about 5 days ago i noticed that it auto did ZFS pool and everything didn't know why but i went with it. Trying to understand it i looked online for some guides and the zfs fs seems very intresting, snapshots, compression everything. It seems that it was really made for two drives not one. i kinda understand if my internal hdd goes out then i would have a backup. Currently setup a VM with freebsd and want to test zfs. should i make two disk hard drives in the VM to test or should i be able to just play with one ? Also the only guides that are offical are the handbook, New and old and other guides i found. 1. https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/zfs/ 2, https://is.gd/GGTjK8 3. https://somedudesays.com/2021/08/the-basic-guide-to-working-with-zfs/ 4. https://wiki.debian.org/ZFS 5. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ZFS 6. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ZFS Don't know if we are suppose to post links that aren't part of freeBSD here but i'm learning everyday if we can't just tell me so i know in the future. What do you guys recommend? Thanks Joe B
