All very good points, thanks for taking the time to answer! I can't help but wonder how many people will make the switch to Unraid from Freenas if zfs gets implemented. When I tried out Freenas years ago before purchasing Unraid it was certainly decent, but Unraid was way ahead when it comes to all the plugins, VMs, and Docker. Really glad I made the switch before it was too late, but as my data has grown my needs for many TB of faster storage than my Unraid pool can muster has also grown. I'm really hoping zfs will be the answer to that.

I'm excited to see the possibility of zfs! Assuming this does get added, is likely to be added to this release or a future release? I know giving exact timelines is impossible, but I've been planning an upgrade and part of that will include a smaller zfs pool that will be always spun up with everything except large media files, then a large unraid pool with the bulk of my media which will keep the drives spun down when possible to save on electricity. If official implementation is a ways out yet I might set it up with the zfs plugin and trying to deal with importing it later, but starting off with native support would probably be better.

I've been using 3 SSDs in my cache pool which is set to run the equivalent of RAID5, so I'm aware it can be fast. However, with all the issues surrounding btrfs I'm not even really comfortable with just my appdata and VMs on there, but I haven't had issues so far. I really wouldn't trust my important data on a ~60TB btrfs pool at this point in time... maybe once btrfs matures some more. Hence, why I want zfs.. I basically need 60-80TB of fast, reliable storage right now for non media + 200TB of whatever storage for media. ZFS snapshots and scrubbing will just be a nice bonus.
