I have recently built a mini home system, raidz2, with five 3TB drives resulting in about 7TB ZFS pool. I have added a sixth drive as a spare. The cabinet has room for eight drives.
Does the forum have a recommendation for the number or ratio of spare drives?
If experience says zero, then I'm okay pooling everything, meanwhile, having three drives (all the remaining spots in my case) would seem excessive.?.?
Looking for tips from the experts!!!
Thanks!
