 - **Z-mirror** → equivalent to RAID 1
 - **RAIDZ1** → equivalent to RAID 5 (tolerates 1 disk failure)
 - **RAIDZ2** → equivalent to RAID 6 (tolerates 2 disk failures)
 - **RAIDZ3** → tolerates up to 3 disk failures

 A computer network cannot exist without the hardware required to build it. Hardware determines the size of the network, communication speeds, and its overall performance. In this article, we will focus on the simplest types of networks, typically found in home environments.

 ## The Router
-The __router__ is the central hub of your network. It directs __packets__—the blocks of data that travel across your network—from the sender to the appropriate recipient. It manages the routing of data both within your local network and to/from external networks. In short, it enables devices to communicate with each other and with the internet.

 A router may also include _firewall_ capabilities, allowing you to restrict traffic from specific devices, as well as _[NAT (Network Address Translation)](/general/networking/nat)_ for port forwarding. It generally includes a _[DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)](/general/networking/nat#dhcp)_ server to automatically assign _IP addresses_ to devices connected to the network.

-The router directly affects communication speeds between devices. The WAN port limits the maximum internet speed you can receive from your ISP. For example, if your subscription offers 5 Gb/s, you’ll need a WAN port that supports at least 5 Gb/s. Likewise, internal device-to-device communication is limited by the speed of the switch. If your devices communicate at 5 Gb/s, the router’s switch must have 5 Gb/s ports. If you're using WiFi 7 equipment and want to enjoy its full speed, your router must support it as well. If you’re using a separate WiFi access point, make sure its network port matches or exceeds the speed of the WiFi it broadcasts—and that the router supports it too.

-__Warning:__ RJ45 transceivers consume a lot of energy due to copper signal loss and can generate significant heat. Low-power models (under 2W) exist and are generally rated for longer cables (e.g., 80m instead of 30m). Surprisingly, these are preferred over short-distance models because they generate less heat and consume less energy—making them more compatible with sensitive devices. Using the wrong type can cause network degradation or even outages.
