I decided to go with ZFS instead of hardware raid for a new host server for the first time. It has 4 Dell Hynix 960GB SDDs for the ZFS volume and 128GB of RAM.
The main VM is an application server that is mostly an IO-bound application with lots of smallish files as the primary database. It also runs MySQL server.
I'm hoping for some feedback, as I'm concerned about regretting either using ZFS or not using the most permanent VM hard disk setup I can.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
