I posted this question on the UnRAID forum, in the ZFS for UnRAID section and didn't get a ton of traction. I am looking for advice on how to move to UnRAID, and best practices for ZFS on UnRAID once moved. I am currently running FreeNAS 11.3 and am planning on moving to UnRAID for the better VM and docker support. Currently in FreeNAS I have three pools, the boot drive, a mirrored SSD set I used for a VM and my 8 x 4TB WD Red Z2 pool. Once on Unraid, I still want my main storage pool as ZFS Z2. However, I don't want to risk any Data loss during the transition. My loose plan is to sync all data to either a pair of mirrored Seagate Exos X16 16TB drives or copy the data to the two drives with them mounted as regular drives. Then once running Unraid, rebuild my big Z2 array, copy the data over without permissions and then rebuild two of the drives with the 16TB drives swapped for two of the 4TB drives. Is this a good plan, should I do something else?
