i don't use zfs, so i am unsure. I have associates that manage ZFS stuff, but nothing at this scale. I'm sure zfs for your use case will be just fine, though. I mean archival and not heavy cache / deletions / etc.
I won't belabor my love for ext4 and basic tools :-)
Haha, no no. If ext4 is working fine for you that's great. I mentioned zfs because I hope to be able to expand a zpool with more drives and so on. Please do share if you have done things like that with LVM + ext4 or something like that.
yes, lvm lets you extend by, for example, adding physical volumes to volume groups, which then let you expand your logical volume (like /volume1 mountpoint) - i checked man lvm for lvm2 on devuan and that confirmed my memory.
