Then again, you give the zfs a name, and throw it a list of raw devices 
and you can have that filesystem 'newfs'ed, writeable, nfsexported and 
running in a more than usual fault-tolerant raided mode in mere seconds 
regardless of size.

Some admins value that. (except the nfs part, but it's optional)
