What did anon mean by this.

zfs just werks on FreBSD. On Linux, unless it's Ubuntu, you gotta do special dances to make it work (and I remember doing the dance even with Ubuntu 5 or so years ago). It's good when you have two SSDs you want to make a RAID1 of. It's kind of pointless when you decide you don't want RAID. I installed Fedora, it came with btrfs and I didn't care, it werks so whatever.
>>
>>108595487
it just works on all distro if you are not a retard.
and even without raid it's not pointless imo.
anyway, i have a nas on zfs so it makes sense to have everything on zfs.
>>
>>108595532
Everything werks everywhere if you're not a retard and have infinite time.
>>
>>108595558
>and have infinite time
it literaly takes like 5 minutes though.

Thanks but I'm sticking with butterfs

Hello fellow ZFS autist. I like ZFSBootMenu. I like not having partition tables on ZFS drives.

all using zfs, just werkz

For me it's BTRFS. ZFS works great, but for personal use it's just kinda too much effort to set up and operate in general (just the 13879324 obscure options to set while creating a volume), but it's greate for enterprise environments where you'd have some IAC setup with strict processes in place.
For my homelab it's BTRFS which took 30 seconds to setup and I never had to think about it again after that.

>>108597605
I stuck with ZFS for 2 years and then switched to BTRFS about a year ago. I have yet to see any difference on the day-to-day apart from the fact that the initial setup was simpler with BTRFS and I don't ever have to interact with it now, so yeah that'd make it better adapted to my use case.

>but this system is 0.0005% more stable in exchange for heavier operational process so you're basically ruining your setup by not using it

Keep jerking off on technicalities while I stick with whatever works for me so I can actually do shit with it.

amazing

Personally I've yet to encounter a scenario where this matters
>>
>>108597550
I never understood the idea that if there are things you can tune that it's unsuitable for home/consumer use.
>>
>>108597916
People also think that because ZFS has RAID it is a bad idea to use it on a single drive. What can you do.
>>
>>108597832
there are a few options, but i... made an install.txt where i took notes years ago and i just refer to that if i need the info.
>>
>>108597550
I've never used a volume. Do you actually mean a dataset? Or maybe even a pool?
