    There is in fact redundancy for essential elements of zfs, but just
    not for user data by default.  Additional redundancy for user data can
    be enabled.

    There is little reason to believe that zfs on one disk is less
    reliable than some other filesystem on one disk other than with the
    other filesystem you might not know that your files have become
    corrupt.
