Hello, when I initially built this Freenas storage server (about 6 years ago), I thought creating separate datasets would offer some benefits over a single "large" dataset.
My dataset configuration is as follows:
Some system data:
Motherboard
Supermicro X9SCL-F
Firmware Revision : 03.38
Firmware Build Time : 2015-01-05
SAS Controller
IBM ServeRAID M1015 (Flashed to IT)
[Not sure how to retrieve the FW version from SSH CLI]
CPU
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1220 V2 @ 3.10GHz
System RAM
Kingston 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3
SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1600 Server
Memory w/TS Model KVR16E11K4/32
Storage Config
Raid Z3 (single pool using 8 drives)
Network cards
Using onboard Intel LAN chipsets
System Data
My dataset configuration is as follows:
- dropbox was a dataset used for cloud storage. This is no longer being used and the contents have been destroyed. This 1TB dataset is now empty and its space ready to be reused somewhere else.
- jails, are jails (I am not using jails).
- media is a dataset to store movies, music, etc
- pve-backups is a dataset used to save backups of VM's
- storage is the main dataset, used as a mount point for all kind of clients, VM's for their storage needs.
