I have done some testing and found that with each of my 3 1.5 TB hard drives individually formatted as UFS by FreeNAS, I get about 71.5 MB/sec write to each drive. When I create a ZFS Raid-Z partition with all 3 1.5 TB drives, I only get about 15 MB/sec write to the drives.
To test I am using dd if=/dev/zero of=file.tmp bs=1024k count=1024
Why would each drive perform well on its own and not in the Raid-Z? Is it a problem with my raid card?
