I'm looking to put 6 drives, 8TB, in a ZFS Raid Z2. Should I look at 512e or 4kn drives?
Looking at Seagate Ironwolf. (NE=pro drives). I've found five different current models, so it's quite confusing!
This is for a home office development box.
"512E" (512B emulated)
ST8000VN004
ST8000NE001
ST8000NE0004
"4KN" (4K native)
ST8000VN0022
ST8000NE0021
Which is best for ZFS (ashift=12 vdevs) ?
(OpenZFS on Linux)
Advantages of 512e vs 4kn ?
Thanks!
