Hello,
While i was briefly in the zfs volume manager freenas 9.2.1.9 last night and i added all 5 disks to a zpool it gave me a warning when switching from RaidZ1 to RaidZ2 . Specifically it gave a warning that 5 disks (3TB WD Reds) in RaidZ2 is not optimal and pointed me to a chapter in the manual for more details. I looked through that section again but i couldnt find anything specific to this setup.
Does anyone know what exactly it is warning about , and whether I should really heed that warning and take RaidZ1 instead or rethink my setup ?
Thanks
