jkrtn OP ,

I mean, yeah, I'd prefer ZFS but, unless I am missing something, it is a massive pain to add disks to an existing pool. You have to buy a new set of disks and create a new pool to transition from RAID z1 to z2. That's basically the only reason it fails the criteria I have. I think I'd also prefer erasure encoding instead of z2, but it seems like regular scrub operations could keep it reliable.

BTRFS sounds like it has too many footguns for me, and its raid5/6 equivalents are "not for production at this time."
