Re:Big Leap for Hard Drive Capacities: 32 TB HAMR Drives Due... by magicalhippo on Sunday June 11, 2023 @06:53AM (#36280128)
The idea would be to use LVM to get writeback caching on the block-device level, then use those cached LVM devices as backing devices for a ZFS pool.

I've tested this on a small scale prototype level (one HDD and one NVME SSD) and there it worked quite well. But like I said it feels a bit fragile, lots of moving parts.
