    Data Recovery Tales: Get Help For VM Recovery

    I re-read the article just to be sure. I stand by my comments. When VM and Data Recovery are mentioned in the same breathe, one can safely presume we are talking about (1)backup and recovery of guests when VMware is the hypervisor. I'll concede that data recovery also refers to getting data...

    This is not possible in Freenas - RAID5 arrays are static once created. Not sure about the other distros you mentioned. The most flexibility will always require a full Linux distro but results in a less user friendly experience. I've been running Freenas for years and it works very well...
