Switch to ZFS?

[NevilleGoddard]

I have a (hopefully) quick question.
I am currently using UFS Enoch and I am thinking about switching to ZFS.
I have 3 identical 1TB disks 16gb of RAM and my CPU is an FX-8350. I was wondering if, to make full use of ZFS would I have to get rid of the data and file system on my 2 spare disks and add them as tanks and then copy the data back on them?
Or could I just install the OS on 1 disk and then just add the 2 spare disks with the ufs file system and data as tanks?
Is it worth it?

Take some time to understand what ZFS really is and what it does and does not.
Start here: https://calomel.org/zfs_raid_speed_capacity.html

Primarily take in mind that ZFS can provide additional security but ONLY when using some form of data redundancy (typically mirroring or raid).

Also give a read at the FreeBSD handbook.

Thanks for the quick reply ASX. That helped a lot.

Nearly forgot: GhostBSD added ZFS support very recently to the installer, it might be bugged ... so a good backup is a "must have".

Thanks for the advice, ASX!
