With ZFS, what are the pros and cons of using a 3x drive RAID-Z vs 6x drive RAID-Z2 setup?

Interested in speed, reliability, etc

Thanks!
 
Ah, okay. Well, you get the same amount of usable storage. raidz2 is more redundant since you can lose any two disks, but speed is equivalent to one physical drive. the striped raidz is vulnerable to losing two drives in each vdev, but will be faster.
