Hi everyone,
I would like to know your opinion about this matter.
A this moment I have a pool with 2x6TB HDD Mirror but I want to upgrade it to 6x6TB RaidZ2. As I need to create a new pool with the 6 drives, I would like to know what, in your opinion, is the best way and cheapest to backup my data for the new pool.
For now the plan would be to use Replication Task into a HDD or a Cloud Service.
The cloud that I found looks cheap but I would like to know your opinion and if you ever done anything similar.
Now I have this following ways to backup:
In your opinion, what would you think is better and why?
Thank you in advance!

Now I have this following ways to backup:
- Replicate my pool to a Cloud Service, like Wasabi.com which looks cheap, destroy the old one and create a new pool with all the drives. Considering this would cost 40$ and internet speed is 100MB upload, this would be a good choice?
- Buy a new HDD, remove one HDD from Mirror pool, add 6 drives to a new pool and Replication Task between old pool (with one HDD) to the new one. This looks simple but the cost will be a new HDD for 150$ and will be just use for spare or sell it.
- Buy an external HDD, backup my pool and then create a new pool. This will maybe cost the same as the last point.
In your opinion, what would you think is better and why?
Thank you in advance!
