Hi,

I have a mirror of intel P4510 2TB drives, but would like to expand the capacity a bit.

I am using this mirror only to host virtual machines.

I know that for normal spinning disks mirrors are reccommended because of the increased iops you get, but I am wondering if the same would apply to ssd's - in particular such high performing disks like mine in terms of iops.

So I am wondering if the experts here would deem it okay to change my setup to RAIDZ1?

I know I have to add at least one extra disk.

But this is also more a question in general - does the mirrors are best for vms also apply for ssd's/nvme drives?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts/answers.
