Any reason you went with a striped mirror instead of raidz5/6?
The two ZFS pools are only 4 devices. One pool is spinning rust, the other is all NVMe.
I don't use raid 5 for large disks, and instead go for raid6/z2. Given z2 and striped mirrors both have 50% overhead with only 4 disks- striped mirrors has the advantage of being much faster, double the IOPs, and faster rebuilds. For these particular pools, performance was more important than overall disk space.
However, before all of these disks were moved from TrueNAS to Unraid- there was a 8x8T Z2 pool, which worked exceptionally well.
