  Don’t use the RAID56 functionality of BTRFS, the official docs still list it as unstable. Apart from that it’s pretty good.

    Still? Good God, it’s been like 15 years.

      Turns out the old gag “You can’t get there from here; You have to go somewhere else and start” is actually true for btrfs’s RAID support.

    Agreed. I’m using it as a mirror, and I’ll probably add another mirror once I run out of space.

    Bro The RAID Fuckin’ Sucks

    ZFS for “RAID” is fine. Btrfs for a single disk (or on top of mdraid or hardware raid) is also fine.

    I am running BTRFS Raid 6. i have no problems with it. You need a UPS to avoid transient errors.

      “mostly solve the write hole problem” 😬

      You do you, but I wouldn’t trust my data to that.
