RAID is not backup. It is 'high availability' or 'faster'... but not backup. If your machine decides that it doesn't want to run 12V to the drives, but instead thinks 24V or something else would be more fun... you will lose everything, even RAIDed. Cheap backup: external drive(s) that are powered down and taken offsite. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72985 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
