Thanks to the FreeNAS community, we have uncovered a potential ZFS compatibility issue with some capacities of newer WD Red drives that use SMR (Shingled Magnetic Recording) technology.

My net landscape:

Devices Connected to the net.

So My FreeNAS system is 3+ years old. Populated with 8x4tb WD reds + 1 cold spare, it is falling short, in terms of storage. Pool is currently at 75% and I know I don’t have to cross 80%. I’m planning to bite the bullet and go for WD reds either 8tb or 10tb non pro. The prices are still...

I was trying to shuck some WD Red's out of the EasyStore 8TB Externals, ended up getting a white labeled drive
Model: WD80EMZZ-00TBGA0
128MB Cache
PN: 2W10101
RM: US7SAJ800
Are these the OEM WD Red's, or another variant? Anyone with any experience with them?
Thx!
In my FreeNAS system I have four WD Red 3TB drives from different years. All of them show identical Firmware Version strings but the newest of them shows a different behavior regarding logs supported.
I'm on FreeNAS-11.1-U4 and I am using

Greetings,
As my Home Server 2011 based build has filled up and hit EOL, I started looking for the next platform to build around. Freenas was the clear choice and much searching online. After a couple months of reading these forums and checking various supermicro servers/motherboards, I think...
EPILOGUE
A bit of the background. My SYSTEM SPECS are available in my signature. It’s been nearly 3 years from original build and about 10-12 months from my last upgrade/addition of the noctua fans.
Obviously the digital media is growing at an exponential rate and my family now uses my FreeNAS...
This should be a simple question that i'm assuming the answer, I would just like to make sure before I pull the trigger.
I currently have 6 2TB WD RED drives in my NAS over the next few months I will be buying replacement drives to expand the storage. I'm looking to get 6 10TB drives.

Hello,
I'm building my first NAS and will be running FreeNAS 11. This will be a relatively small build for home use. My plan is to use six WD Red 2TB drives. I had originally thought to build my array with all six drives and use Raid-Z2. My concern with this plan is if I decide to expand...
Hey everyone!
I'm running FreeNAS 9.10.2-U4 and my setup includes 3 4TB WD Red Edition (NAS version @5400rpm).

It seems that one of the...
Hello All,
Long time lurker, first time poster. Looking to get some feedback on my build. Have already done my own desktop gaming build, but am intimidated by the world of server-grade hardware.
I have a current selection of parts, but I am open to suggestions.
What will I be using this for...
