@dorian@retro.social mdraid vs ZFS vs btrfs etc are all personal choice. I personally like ZFS, and I like FreeBSD but currently run it on Linux because familiarity with it for $WORK, but they're all fairly sound.
There's basically zero reason to run hardware raid in 2026 though. You gain almost nothing in modern computing and introduce a slew of new potential problems.
