July 14, 20241 yr Hi, tomorrow I will be replacing my 500gb WD SN700 cache drive for 1 TB nvme drive. Currently I'm using btrfs as filesystem and it is working with no issues at all. I wonder whether going for ZFS for my new cache drive for small home user worth any potential problems and if any what advantages I would have. Again, I emphatise for normal home user (hobbyst) so no super fancy build with tons of drives. Just low powered intel N100 with 2 x 10Tb drives.
