I have 8-500gb drives I want to setup a little home storage with. Freenas suggests 2 groups of RAIDz2 to be optimal. RAIDz3 gives me a slight more disk space.
After scouring for any additional Pro's or Con's I couldn't find any. I'm sure it all comes to performance, but is there way to get an idea before hand as to what performance differences I will see?
The system will mostly be used for Photo's and a few movies here and there. Important stuff, But nothing I wouldn't have 2nd, 3rd and maybe 4 drive at other families houses for backup.
AMD Phenom X4
8gb RAM ECC
