I want to connect my Windows graphics workstation to a ZFS file server after reading about the amazing properties of ZFS servers.
However, what is the best way to make this connection? I understand there are options like SAMBA and iSCSI, but I do not understand their pros and cons well.
I currently use the error correcting features of SyncBack Pro to copy files in Windows. Does my Windows machine write directly to the ZFS server? Would an error on the Windows machine be copied/magnified on the ZFS server even with the ZFS server's protective algorithms?
