Best practice of maintaining the disk drives one that you menetioned
scan once weekly. RAID suggestions, scan checks, monitoring etc.

There is little to read up on this. Some of it is "common sense", some is experience. There may be books on storage system design and maintenance, but quite likely they are not targeted at these types of systems, so their suggestions might be not as helpful.

Your best bet is to

a) ask questions on these topics

b) hire people who know what they are doing

For point "b", the Gluster partner Cambridge is one of the better outfits. You can always hire other folks/companies; they will have their own agendas that you should be aware of beforehand. Everyone will. Caveat Emptor and all that.

Joe
