I don't understand where you get the number for 4 drives in a mirror? If you're worried about disk failure, just put two disks in a software mirror and be done with it. If you use different manufacturer batches, they likely won't fail at the same time. My personal preference is to use a pair of pfSense boxes with CARP and pfSync and a single SSD drive each. If the one fails, the other keeps working while you fix it. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
