Hi,
I have a new system with 2 LSI controllers (currently in IT mode but could be in raid) with 16 drives (some 4TB some 10TB some 18 TB)
Is there any way to get ZFS and/or TrueNAS to support a single file that is too big to fit on one drive.
For example, my full backup is about 25 TB with incrementals being very small. I cant split the full backup into chunks. I must have one logical volume than can somehow span/stripe that large file across multiple drives.
For the moment, I dont want to introduce redundancy. That further complicates the solution. If there is no way to span, then redundancy is irrelevant.
If you know of some other solution, please let me know.
Thanks and Best Wishes
