And at the scale I'm operating, I'll take hardware raid over raidz any day. I did some performance benchmarking when initially building these clusters, and beegfs really doesn't like raidz.
I use raidz at home, though.
That's fair. My biggest concern with a hardware raid is the risk having trouble finding compatible hardware if/when a controller dies, but I expect that's not really an issue at larger scale; you probably buy hardware in bulk and have replacements on hand
