Setup

Preliminary: 1. Kernel with btrfs support (located at /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko) 2. Userspace tools: apt-get install btrfs-tools (mainly for filesystem creation, conversion, etc.)

In order to create filesystem on device (even not partitioned one): mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
