Backups using RAID1

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

 



Hi there,

In recent months I've been exploring low cost solutions for backing up
the data on my home media server. I already run three raid-1 arrays on
this rig to protect against drive failures and a fellow linux user
suggested I consider using the existing raid, just yank the 'backup'
disks as needed, and drop in fresh disks to replace the yanked unit.

I realize I'm treading on unsupported ground here but what suggestions
can people give me to minimize the risk of data loss?
