Re: Looking for a RAID1 box

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Look at mitxpc.com or search for mini itx barbones PC's on tigerdirect or newegg or amazon, there are a lot of choices.

Perhaps this would work:

Just search for a 2-disk 1U x86_64 (Intel or AMD) system that has room for 2
SATA drives (probably a pair 2.5" SSDs). Don't bother to search for RAID.

Probably something like these:

And I am just coming up empty on my searches.

My search foo has been really off, it seems.

Help?

I am looking for a box I can drop Centos or one of the spinoffs that:

Has RAID1 internal (not an external USB RAID thing)
       Can be software or hardware
All modern Linux kernels include software RAID out-of-the-box.  This means any
system that supports more than one disk that you can install Linux on
(including CentOS) can be set up with Linux software RAID.  If you want
hot-swap, there are various SATA hot-swap units than can be mounted in a ATX
case with front 5" or 3" spaces.  A modern ATX motherboard with a AHA SATA
controller will support Linux, including hot-swap SATA disks, including SATA
connected SSDs.

small (4TB/drive fine) and low power

I plan to use it ONLY for email server.  perhaps iRedMail

I have spent a lot of time looking and not finding any such piece of metal.

All I find are NAS boxes with their own OS.

thanks

Bob (frustrated)
