Generally I recommend using BTRFS for workstations and servers that have 2 disks. Use ZFS for big storage.
Unless you need to make regular backups from workstations or small servers to a "big storage" ZFS backup server. In that case, use zfs so you can use 'zfs send'. Backups will be completed in a very small fraction of the time they'd take with rsync....the time difference is huge - minutes vs hours. That's fast enough to do them hourly or more frequently if needed, instead of daily. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
