Topicbox-Message-UUID: cc4cf69a-ead9-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 For home use a ZFS intent log and caches on a good 2,5" SSD in a battery-backed thinkpad seems like an easy, silent, fast and stable (even against data loss from power outage) basis, even if you only connect shitty USB3 HDD drives externally for the pools. Your data should be safe on the SSD as long as you make sure it's underprovisioned enough to make fair use of wear leveling for a long time.
