@ezio Not sure if you saw my post on the matter but uh... avoid #RAID.

Software RAID isn't much better generally, it still (to its fault) relies on the hardware telling something is wrong.

That was only a sane assumption on specific hardware in the past, but relying on the firmware of the drives themselves? That was *never* a sane assumption.

I’m using ZFS on my PC now (storage, not boot) but you can’t just add disks to a zraid vdev.

To be honest, I don’t care much for the higher end features of ZFS, I just want non-fixed sized partitions spanning disks, with parity, and optionally snapshots.

Any suggestions for a more flexible solution that will let me freely add and remove disks of various sizes?
