Hello,
I have a USB drive with around 1.7TB of files on it. I copied everything to my FreeNAS system and the resulting Disk utilization was 512GB.
I ran "zfs get all NetStorage" and it reported the compression ratio as 1.32x. Can someone please help me understand how these numbers add up?
1.7TB to 0.512TB seems closer to a 3:1 ratio. What am I missing?
Also, to ensure my initial copy did not miss any files, I ran rsync on the two folders.
Thanks.
