Hi, I read that there should not be a RAID controller between disks and the motherboard as ZFS needs to have direct access from the CPU to the disk drives. Similarly, external USB drives should not be used. Are these true? I am considering to get a mini computer and connect it to a multi-bay DAS enclosure via USB. Is this a bad idea? I may use HDD, 2.5" SATA SSD or a combination of both.
