Posted May 5, 2015 I hope seagate knows that there is a really high chance that 20% of those drives will die within the first year. The other 80% should last a really long time though.

Posted May 5, 2015 Linus You made mistake in your array building. You made a 9 drive RaidZ2. But with RaidZ2 you need 6 10 14 drives for the best performance. So Multiplies of 4 drives + 2. Then you also can enable 4k sectors and that will perform better. Best Solution add 3 more drives and make 3x 10 drive RaidZ2. And the molex spilters can cause problems because the molex connection isn't the best. So hope they use the highest quality molex splitters instead of cheap chinese splitters. But it is a great build! Nice hardware platform. And I love the 3 SAS controllers. Not sure about FreeNAS. I prefer Nas4Free or ZFSguru. My own server is a 6x 3tb RaidZ2 with ZFSguru.

Posted May 5, 2015 Hi and really good job!(First post here) I would like to know your thoughts on this written by sub.messa (can't find original post): "As i understand, the performance issues with 4K disks isn’t just partition alignment, but also an issue with RAID-Z’s variable stripe size. RAID-Z basically works to spread the 128KiB recordsizie upon on its data disks. That would lead to a formula like: 128KiB / (nr_of_drives – parity_drives) = maximum (default) variable stripe size Let’s do some examples: 3-disk RAID-Z = 128KiB / 2 = 64KiB = good 4-disk RAID-Z = 128KiB / 3 = ~43KiB = BAD! 5-disk RAID-Z = 128KiB / 4 = 32KiB = good 9-disk RAID-Z = 128KiB / 8 = 16KiB = good 4-disk RAID-Z2 = 128KiB / 2 = 64KiB = good 5-disk RAID-Z2 = 128KiB / 3 = ~43KiB = BAD! 6-disk RAID-Z2 = 128KiB / 4 = 32KiB = good 10-disk RAID-Z2 = 128KiB / 8 = 16KiB = good" And is there any prefomance gains in spreading out the drives more evenly over the the controllers? as I've heard from some users using this system. Did you do any sort of burn in test of the drives before use? And lastly how frequently do you have scrubbing set up? //Nemo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 5, 2015 As previously said by others. The optimal configuration for a RAIDZ2 is either 4, 6, 10 or 18 drives. These drives probably have 4k sector sizes so the pool should be aligned for 4k (ashift=12). It might also be worth looking into compression. LZ4 is incredible and only compresses data with a minimal compression ratio of 12.5%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
