Thanks for sharing -- looks like zfs still doesn't support tiering and just has the ARC and using SLOG for similar functionality...

And yeah, ZFS can't be expanded willy-nilly, found a good blog post with someone's adventures that was illuminating[0].

It sounds like you're mixing up SLOG and L2ARC. How is ARC/L2ARC/base dataset not tiered?
