Hello,

I just built a box with Core i3, ECC RAM 20Gb, 500Gbx2 hard drives (just use them for practice). I installed the newest version of FreeNAS in a 16GB USB driver. When I booted FreeNAS entered "storage", I couldn't find the tab of "ZFS Volume Manager" like I watched the video or somewhere. I looked user guide, still couldn't find any information about "ZFS Volume Manager". I am wondering if missed something or the newest version uses "Volume manager" instead of "ZFS Volume Manager" ?? How can confirm it is under ZFS file system?

Thanks for your help.

That means whatever you do, all have been under the ZFS file system if it is 9.3 version?? That makes sense to me. I was worried my freenas box is not good enough to match the ZFS requirements.

Since 9.3 only supports ZFS, there's nothing to worry about.

If you do a "zpool status" (without quotes) from the command line you'll see your pool layout.
