I have an old Dell server with SAS controllers and 8x300GB and 2x160GB HDDs. I can handle RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, 50.
I am undecided how to configure the disks and in general also on other servers if it is better to use the controller RAID or configure RAID/RAID-Z from TrueNAS.
On this server I was thinking of using the controller for RAID1 on the two 160GB disks and the other disks with RAID-Z2/3.
The server has 8GB of RAM, performance is not as important as data reliability.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
