Hey guys! I got my home lab setup going nicely now. One mirror vdev ZFS for my Nextcloud, granting very good performance! Small question though: I got two extra drives now and was thinking if it is worth it adding it already as extra mirror vdev. My question is the following:

Will resilvering of a single disk be quicker if I have my data striped over two mirror vdev than if all my data is in a single mirror vdev?

In other words, I was wondering in that sense if it is safer to replace a disk due to shorter resilver?
