[SOLVED] Permissions issue on 128GB SSD internal drive

[agent_kith]

Very ambitious. Maybe we could bring the discussion to another thread?
I googled ZFS on single drive and found a warning against using it where there is no redundant drive. https://www.truenas.com/community/thread...ost-216140

They're talking about this in a different context - redundancy, error correction and data recovery.

In those terms, you will have the same issue on a single drive regardless on what file system you choose. e.g. you set up a drive on ext4, and have a drive failure, you lose everything. Same with any and every other filesystem - including ZFS.

So yeah, it's pointless to do a single drive on anything if the metrics you are looking at are redundancy, error correction and what not (in general it's about high availability). 

However, if we just focus on snapshots, ZFS isn't exactly pointless. There are other downsides too, e.g. disk space, CoW filesystem will waste more space, and it's best to always have 80% free just in case.
