A combination of me using 8GB RAM for 32 TB of storage (replication and light use) and this: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/47qedb/how_much_ram_for_100tb_zfs_pool/
If the OP is just using this as a gigantic datastore for Plex supporting 1-2 users, RAM usage doesn't need to be that high (in my opinion).
The most useful post thus far. Yes, it's home use on GIGe. With pretty much just me uploading stuff, maybe two Plex streams at most, and Transmission running throttled to 400kb/s. So, performance in regard to speed is maxed at the GIGe bottleneck.
In a ZFS pool, would it be better to have more drives in a VDEV or more VDEVs? For example, 10 drives in one RAIDZ3 VDEV or two five drive RAIDZ3 VDEVs?
