Shimitar , 1 month ago Been on USB enclosures using Linux software raid for 20 years and never lost a bit so far. Didn't go cheap with USB jbod, and i have no idea if zfs is more sensitive to USB... But I don't use zfs either so don't know. But again I have been using two jbods over USB: 4 SSDS split on two RAID1s on USB3 2 HDDs on RAID1 on USBC All three raid are managed by Linux software raid stack. The original one I think I started in the 2000's, then upgraded disks many times and slowly moving to ssds to lower heat production and power usage. Keep them COOL that's important.
