I've documented my experiences in migrating from a 3-way RAIDZ1 to a 6-way RAIDZ2 at http://bugs.au.freebsd.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/zfsraid Note that, even for a home system, backups are worthwhile. In my case, I backup onto a 2TB disk in an eSATA enclosure. That's currently (just) adequate but I'll soon need to identify data that I can leave off that backup. --=20 Peter Jeremy --lteA1dqeVaWQ9QQl Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk0gmOEACgkQ/opHv/APuIeCCwCgol+ML2/rxtHv+tgtsV4H99X/ UOoAn3X2cwLSE/gPDtvLlI0hxoSYXf7X =DNa2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --lteA1dqeVaWQ9QQl--
