I've done a bit of searching on this and found the threads on regular status emails, but that's not quite what I'm after. I also have a question on support for hardware RAID.
Having recently had an issue with my RAID1 array going degraded (one drive developed SMART errors), I was a bit worried since I only found out about it by chance. Is there a way to make sure FreeNAS (9.1) emails me as soon as any issue with RAID performance occurs?
My intention is to use a JMB363 controller on an Atom motherboard, as I understand FreeNAS supports that hardware controller to maintain a RAID array. If not, then I'll use the ZFS software mirroring.
Any help on either question would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers.
