What is better - two distinct SD which do not know anything about each other and FD just sends two concurrent data streams to both (or any multiple number of SD when we implement chunking or erasure code) or special kind of SD which handles redundancy internally syncing data to other SD synchronously. > > I would probably send to two SDs at once because it allows for more > flexible setups: And by default lower the backup speed twice. > the 2nd SD can write to "the cloud", it can be on the > off-site box, etc. Whereas amanda-style RAIT device only protects > against single disk/tape failure. > So, why not to design a special kind of SD which will get data from FD and then save it on different backend SD synchronously defining full and flexible RAIT or EC solution? This is a kind of help I want to get from community as you always complain about decisions which developers take himself. best regards -- Radosław Korzeniewski rados...@korzeniewski.net
