And also I added a new 8TB HDD drive. + +Now I have an small problem all the media and random files inside the original HDD were inside a proxmox virtual qcow disk which +is just a disk file that all the other containers from the proxmox instance had mounted. Now with this new disk +I made a ZFS filesystem. + +The ZFS filesystem is great for servers. It has a lot of features like having on-write compression and decompression +and also it is very easy to add new disks to a "zpool" of disks. + +Right now I'm copying all the files inside the old virtual .qcow disk file onto the new ZFS filesystem that I have made +on the new disk. When this finishes, I will wipe the old disk and add it to the ZFS pool. + +For now it will be on RAID0. These disks are relatively new, so maybe in the far future (in about 3 years) I will consider +maybe making a RAID5. I think it should be easy, right? + +Anyways see ya \ No newline at end of file
