Thanks John, Ian and Marty for your replies.
I'm after the redundancy so that the server stays up if a drive fails.
I don't need superfast performance. The lower performance of software
RAID is acceptable.
What I do need though is for the system to keep running if a drive
fails, and for it to be easy to replace the dead drive. If the server
has to be taken down for a couple of minutes to install a replacement
drive, that's OK.
However, if I did go for hardware RAID, does anyone have
recommendations for a controller that's supported by Linux?
Cheers,
John
