After losing all my data (6 TB)..
It is possible to run a fork of ZFS on Windows. For that you will want https://openzfsonwindows.org/. However, I have no idea of the integrity of the project, or, whether it is stock ZFS but with windows drivers or not. It also likely has some tradeoffs that I cannot speak too. I would be dubious of using it without playing around with it a lot first.

Reliability of external hard drive?
So ZFS is my cheap RAID option. Idk how much windows support there is if people are in windows, there's the windows port but idk what kind of issues they currently have. Haven't tried it, I live in linux.

remote management gui?
Is there a btrfs management interface that can be accessed/used remotely? I'm talking about an (independant - not a distro) interface like Rockstor or Truenas Scale. I've been searching until my eyes bug out of my skull and I can't find anything. Good peeps of reddit, please am I missing something? I've found plenty of great projects but not what I'm looking for: snapper-gui - single purpose/not remote snapper - single purpose / not a gui and I hate it (sorry) yast - distro specific https://github.com/yourbsod/btrfs-gui - vaporware? timeshift / autosnap - local only and single purpose btrfs-assistant - not remote https://github.com/kdave/btrfsmaintenance - different purpose and not a gui buttermanager - I was unable to try but seems to require grub-btrfs
- do we need to run maintenance commands like scrub every now and then?
- Is my setup plan okay, or should i give up on btrfs?
