Has anyone had any experience or comment regarding linux RAID over
ieee1394?
As a budget backup solution, I am considering using a pair of 500GB
drives, each connected to a firewire 400 port, configured as a linear
array, to which the contents of an onboard array will be rsynced weekly.
In theory, throughput performance should not be an issue, but it would
be great to hear from somone who has done this.
It should work, but I don't like it... it leaves you with a lot of
exposure between backups.
Unless your data change a lot, you might consider a good incremental
dump program to DVD or similar.
