    10TB Drives in ZFS?

    Hello, Are 10TB drives recommended to use in a ZFS setup with 2 for redundancy?

I was thinking to pick...

    Hello, I wanted to post an update. The pool has still been resilvering for over 5 weeks now. Now, other drives started resilvering as well. I have a strong feel I'm SOL now. Network transfer speeds are so slow since the beginning that I can't copy any files. Is there a way I could "undo" the...

    Updating OmniOS r151014 to Latest?

It is not connected to the outside internet at least not through a DMZ and no ports are forwarded to it so unlikely someone is trying to log-in from the outside. I turned off...
