Hi, I'm building a new ZFS pool from scratch, choosing my own hardware = etc... For sure I'll go for the standard SAS2008 / SAS3008 controller. However, I'm wondering whether or not I should absolutely go for = dual-port SAS HDD (with dual backplane, controller...). I have some difficulties to find enterprise grade dual port SAS HDD. HGST used to provide Ultrastar SAS HDD which were dual-port. However, strangely, Western Digital does not advertise their Ultrastar = DC SAS HDD as bringing dual-port, so I guess they're not. Any thoughts / advices regarding this topic ? Many thanks for your help, Kind regards, Ben
