January 31Jan 31 Community Expert I have a ZFS pool set up (one disk mirrored to another one).While I am happy with it, I am reconsidering and move (back) to a traditional Unraid Array with XFS disks (1 disk with 1 parity disk).I am wondering what's the fastest & safest way to convert my ZFS mirrored pool to a 1 disk / 1 parity XFS array.
