Setting up SnapRAID + mergerfs on OpenMediaVault… better than UnRAID for mixed drive sizes

One correction that I need to make for this video for SnapRAID is that after adding the drives and settings you need to click the wrench/screwdriver icon in the UI and Sync one time manually or the script will fail to run properly.

Thanks for the walk-through. Excellent tutorial videos like always.
I know that the concept of snapraid is kinda (similar to unraid with the exception of more room for extra parity disks for snapraid) but totally different than conventional "mdadm" software or hardware raid or even ZFS when it comes to (Write – Read) performance based on RAID level and configuration.
One question though:
Since you chose the snapraid policy (the most free space) and the 3 video files were copied into 3 different HDDs, have you tried to (copy-paste) or even use (rsync) service to see if ALL 3 files will be copied simultaneously to your desktop or to other backup server ?
The reason why I'm asking is because I have 20+ HDDs of the same size, and a couple of 10Gb NICs and wondering if the (most free space) policy act same like other conventional raid levels when reading from multiple HDDs.
Thanks for the explanation. Why are your file system not btrfs?
