Hello, and thanks in advance for any input.
I have just setup FreeNAS for the first time (very excited to start using this software). I used 2x 32GB SSD's as the boot volume. While installing, I did not see any option to specify how multiple drives get configured for boot.
Right now, my understanding is that they would have been configured as the default, a mirrored set. What I'm interested in doing is configuring the boot volume as a striped set. Is this supported with normal functionality, or would it require quite a bit of work?
Also, if anyone has input on how this might benefit the performance of the FreeNAS box, as opposed to a single disk, I'd be very interested to hear thoughts on that as well. I've been running a Proxmox server with a striped SSD boot disk, and have been very happy with the results. Not sure how this will vary for FreeNAS.
Thanks again, and glad to be getting my foot in the door of the FreeNAS community!
