I have 11 disks 3TB Hitachi Ultrastar 7K4000. I am creating storage for backup of data of 30 people. Internet connection is 1Gbs, so I do not need fast storage because ethernet speed is limiting factor and I do not expect it will be better.
I am thinking about 10x3TB RAIDZ2 + 1 spare or 11x3TB RAIDZ3 and I cannot decide which solution is better (safer). I suppose that both offer approximately the same speed. I am able to buy new drive in 3-4 days.
Thanks for any advice or discussion about it (use of spares).
