[MergerFS](https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs) is a great filesystem for an expandable storage system in a homelab. Mostly since it allows you to add disks one at a time without having to, for example, resilver a ZFS pool. MergerFS won't be as efficient as a filesystem that stripes your data across disks, but in the case of a disk failure the disks unaffected will still have part of the data.

[Plenty](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2017/06/24/the-perfect-media-server-2017/) of other [people](https://web.archive.org/web/20200130103849/https://www.teknophiles.com/2018/02/19/disk-pooling-in-linux-with-mergerfs/) described MergerFS, so I'll keep this post simple.
