    Been running 7.0 release candidates for what seems like a year now. Rock solid on my hardware and the ZFS functionality is great. I run XFS for “easily replaceable media like movies and TV shows” and ZFS for anything critical.

    ZFS Snapshots are amazing and my backup time has gone from 90 minutes to 4 min with snapshot replication.

      I think I need to read up on the advantages of zfs… Doesn’t it require huge amounts of RAM?

        Only if you’re using data deduplication which is more useful for data centres and such that may have many copies of the same data on the array.

        Without that enabled the memory usage is similar to any other file system.
