I’d do a pool with 2x vdevs, each with three drives in raidz1

That’s also a good option but I wouldn’t with 6 drivers personally. I have a 12 bay array with two pools of 6 each running raidz2. I’ve run raid 5 for a long time but have had one drive fail many times and always have mini heart attacks while I wait for the new drive to come in and the rebuild process to happen.

I do this for expansion. I can expand the pool three drives at a time instead of 6. But, I set it up knowing the risk with a single parity drive…and I’ve acounted for that with backups. 👍
