[SOLVED] file system choice for pbs on hardware

[RobFantini]

Hello,
we are considering moving pbs to a raid-10 zpool using six 4-TB nvme disks.

i was searching threads on best file system type to use and saw concerns regarding zfs. however I can not see a more reliable way then raid-10 zfs.

does anyone have another idea to consider ?

Which concerns did you see in regard to ZFS? I would definitely agree that ZFS is the more reliable option

I believe using zfs nvme mirrors is an excellent idea, I have no concerns whatsoever regarding zfs on pbs hw.

however that is for pbs running as a virtual machine.

You shouldn't run ZFS ontop of ZFS because of the high overhead. If you don't nest it and install PBS bare metal that shouldn't be a problem.
