    ZFS Build recommended Testing/Benchmarks

    This works fine under Solaris and will auto online the spare when needed. I may be incorrect here, but I dont think this works under the other options (free as, zfs on Linux...)

    Planning a storage server

    Your system listed seems reasonable. Whatever you end up doing keep this in mind, never combine zfs with hardware raid. Zfs needs direct disk access. hardware raid plus zfs is a bad match. The memory requirements are not as bad as some make it out to be. It really depends on your...

    What is your opinion on these cheap drive caddies?

    Somewhat stating the obvious here.... Because drives do fail and it is annoying to get them out otherwise?

    What is a few FREE and good DVD burning software?

    Listing the OS you are using might be a good start. If you using LINUX, K3B is really good.

    The [H]ard Forum Storage Showoff Thread - Post your 10TB+ systems

    From him posting a single word, you were able to come up with things like "butt-hurt" and a whole thing about how we need a new saying around here? Looking at google trends, it appears "butt-hurt" reached its peak around 2012. People posting yet another image of hard drives in cardboard...

    Who wants a new storage showoff thread?

    As i posted before in the main 10TB thread, the problem wont be solved by creating a new "showoff thread" but by getting people use the existing one correctly. Here is a perfect example: http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1041108743&postcount=2365 Oh Boy, yet another large image of a...

    Solaris / ZFS degraded pool reporting?

    The alerting is done via FMA: svcs -n and look at these: "problem-*" you can set them like this: svccfg setnotify problem-diagnosed mailto:me@myaddress.com,root@localhost

    The [H]ard Forum Storage Showoff Thread - Post your 10TB+ systems

    I'm in the same boat as you, both in terms of storage (also ~50TB) and the thread. I check this thread every once in a while and am often disappointed. Occasionally there is some good stuff here, but not often. You end up with a lot of pictures of someone in a computer room (the floor...

    Slow HP P421 Controller Performance - HP MSA70 & D2700

    Look at the spec doc from HP (at least for the MSA60) HP StorageWorks 60 Modular Smart Array ... SATA 1.5Gb/s - Delivering data transfer rates greater than 100MB/s

    Slow HP P421 Controller Performance - HP MSA70 & D2700

    First thought is the issue is with your MSA70 (I have a MSA60 and it isn't known for speed). Have you tried just the internal disks (not copying to/from the MSA70)?

    Notification of severe failures like ZFS degraded pools?

    If so, cant you just use svccfg ? svccfg setnotify problem-diagnosed mailto:XXX@XXXXX.com No need for PERL or such, it will send you a fancy report with the problem details and any corrective action it attempted.

    Seagate ST3000DM001 3Tb Just failed :( + HOT

    Not long ago I sent seagate a 10 day old dead 3TB drive. They sent me back a "repaired" drive with the "fancy" green bar around the label. I now have another dead 3TB drive, this one out of warranty. I decided to give them a try after seeing positive reviews but now wish i stuck with...

    First NAS build, need feedback

    What is the SSD for? Freenas boots off USB memory sticks and it probably wont help you much if you are streaming video.
