Back when you had just formatted the disk, yeah, probably. Now, with the additional changes, I would say no.

The single disk will essentially degrade the performance of the whole pool, because it represents a unique (100Mb/sec, typical) transaction group now, and if you lose that one disk you will also lose the entire pool since it has no redundancy. >> >> This is a common mistake people make with ZFS, and it sucks, but block pointer rewrite was never implemented so that’s just the way it is, too. That’s another reason for FreeBSD-based front-ends to ZFS like FreeNAS. The GUI adds some seat-belts to prevent users from trivially doing things like that. On the command line, all bets are off. >> >> - Jordan >> >>> On Apr 23, 2014, at 7:09 PM, Gena Guchin <ggulchin@icloud.com> wrote: >>> >>> Looking though the history, i DID add that disk ada7 (!) to the pool, but I added it as a separate disk.
