I use a ZFS pool for my home stuff too.
To minimize the pucker factor, I have an extra drive of the same capacity and I rotate through them in the mirror pool.
It makes good practice replacing and resilvering drives and since it's a mirror it's also kind of an offline backup.
Also, I had bought the initial drives at the same time and figured rotating though them would minimize the odds of failing around the same time.
I'm much less wary of the whole thing now that I've resilvered the drives several times.
That's a really great idea. I know at least 2 of the drives are from the same batch so it would be good to rotate things in and out. Thanks!
Yea, if anything it makes good practice.
Swapping hard drives in the larger data pool isn't as daunting anymore.
Although, I gotta be honest, swapping drives in the zpool from which proxmox boots itself is still a bit iffy to me.
I had to set a reminder, because otherwise I won't do it often enough.
