I am wondering if I can mix different types of drives in the same ZFS pool. All drives are Seagate Exos X14 and all drives are SAS 12 Gbps. However, some of them are standard model, some of them are SED and some of them are SED-FIPS. The model numbers are ST12000NM0038, ST12000NM0278, and ST12000NM0368. I found this information at the Seagate official website.

Same question about these X12 and X16 drives to mix with my X14.

My server is a Dell T420 with the HBA in IT mode, and I plan on keeping SED off even for the drives that have this feature.
