Hi all,
I am going to swap my HDDs out, in total. I would like to know if the current hard drives with data, set up in ZFS RAIDZ1, will be accessible in future use if I destroy the zpools and volumes right now.
i.e. is my data "safely gone forever" if I destroy volumes and zpools - or do I also need to write random data to the drives? If I do need to write data to it, can FreeNas assist me in this endeavor before I put the new drives in?
Thanks.
