I’ve always wondered, given the warnings in documentation, if there are any people brave enough to try Btrfs in a RAID5/6 configuration. Has anyone here actually tried it with “real” data?

    If the people on Phoronix are to be believed, it’s a buggy mess that will eat your data. Either way I would recommend using LVMRAID (as it’s much more mature) and putting BTRFS on top. Then you can put DM-Crypt between them and get easy FDE.
