2 drive mirror READ performance (no ARC) beats 2x2 mirror? I've got two volumes on the same FreeNAS 11 box that use HDDs for data storage: -- #1 is a 2 drive mirror using 5 year old WD Se 4 TB HDDs (WD Se was the predecessor to WD Red Pro) -- #2 is a 2x2 mirror (like a RAID10) using brand new WD Gold 10 TB HDDs Both are set up the same way with
- Cannot add a mirrored drive to an existing single disk pool
This is how to attach a Mirror device, (though we are requesting the wording to be clearer); Go to "Storage" Under "Topology", select "Manage Devices" Select the stripe with your single disk, (but don't select the current disk) You should now have an "Extend" option to the right, select it; Now select your new disk, and press the "Extend" button

If the original operating system device fails and is detached, the boot mirror changes to consist of just the newer device and grows to whatever capacity it provides However, new devices added to this mirror must now be as large as the new capacity
- Some differences between RAIDZ and mirrors, and why we use . . . - TrueNAS

- 3 Drive Configuration | TrueNAS Community
It will work You can create a pool with only a single 3-way mirror and at a later date add another 3-way mirror to the very same pool The pool will then extend according to the size of that new mirror Such a pool will be and remain safe and stable It is not ideal because at first, all your data will be on your first mirror

If the mirror is two large to bake it out , we used isopropyl alcohol saturated and wiped clean several times then used a hair dryer and sealed this worked well for a huge bar mirror – Ed Beal Commented Dec 31, 2019 at 16:41
- Reword pool Extend to Attach a Mirror to be consistent . . . - TrueNAS
In Truenas Scale (no idea how it’s on Core), if you want to convert a single disk pool to a mirrored pool, you use the “Extend” feature in “Devices” menu However, this wording is very confusing and even misleading to an extent Under the hood, the equivalent of this feature is the “zpool
