I recently picked up an M1015, but it doesn't seem to play nicely with grub on Ubuntu 12.04 (1.99-21ubuntu3.1). When the card is installed, I receive an "Out of Memory error" during boot, just as grub kicks in.
Does anyone else have this issue, and is there any version of grub or firmware...
what happens if you do a zfs send to a destination smaller than the source? can it be 'finished' once the receiving end has enough space with an incremental send?
How much of a performance hit is there if you add a new vdev to a pool after the current vdev's are full?
Basically, is having data distributed unevenly across vdevs a huge deal for a home NAS? Is it worth destroying/rebuilding for?
Reference...
Whats the best way to test/check this, just listen to the drive? I have 3 of them in a zdev (along with 2 wd green drives), and they have been performing fine.
