I occasionally make a snapshot manually but could automate it with cron jobs. Zfs is completely managing them.Īll my media and data are stored on this one zfs pool, no separation or anything fancy. I have 3x 2TB WD Reds and 1x 2TB seagate green as a raidz1 pool. In fact testing out running a windows 7 VM using kvm.it's working but sloooow! Basically you can run everything off the HP microserver and not need anotherġ28 GB Crucial M4 SSD ext 4 for ubuntu 12.10 as the OS -> Running ubuntu server with zfsforlinux installed. You don't need to worry about that now as you can always use FreeNAS in the future and import your pool.ĮDIT: I mis-read your first post but I'm not going to edit my text. If you don't need plex then FreeNAS is probably a good choice given the zfs webUI for snapshots and using some of the other features. I should buy one more as I've got just enough space elsewhere to backup and recreate the pool. You can't add drives later to one pool but you can increase their size. My advice is get all your hard drives included in the pool when you make it. Incredibly simple to setup as everything is in repositories or well documented (sab/sickbeard/couchpotato). The only thing using RAM is PLEX - but that's a bug with the media scanner. 8GB of RAM is ample for me running 1 raidz. I used custom BIOS to unlock the 5/6th SATA to full speed for SSD/250GB. on! I have 8GB of RAM installed, 4x 2TB drives, the 250GB it came with and 1 SSD. I have a HP microserver which I run zfs, plex sabnzbd, sickbeard etc.
