FWIW, there was a list of videos just posted to freebsd-fs a couple days 
ago. If you decide to jump into ZFS, after you have a handle on all the

An Introduction to the Implementation of ZFS (part 1 of 2):

An Introduction to the Implementation of ZFS (part 2 of 2):

... they describe how ZFS works under the hood and it might help you
