Hi,
1. Is it true that I need the same size of all harddrives that are within a Raid 5 array with ZFS?
2. How safe is Raid 5 really? http://www.zdnet.com/blog/storage/why-raid-5-stops-working-in-2009/162
3. I have 2x2TB WD Green and 2x3TB WD Red. My goal was to create 1 large volume with a fail capacity on 1 disc. So if 1 disc was lost a new one could be mounted without lost data. What raid would handle this?
I know that raid have nothing to do with backup, Im running backup with crashplan already on important data.
