Just curious if anyone is using Raid 1 configuration for redundancy.
Anthony, appreciate your input but you need to read up on Raid 1, many modern MB's support it and with Raid 1 the second drive is a mirror (redundant) of the first, don't understand you comment on reliability, almost all servers use it. I was just wondering if anyone was using it.
Seems like a good alternative with 1 TB drives under a hundred bucks.
RAID 1 is more about read speed/performance and redundancy than as a storage solution was the only point I was trying to make...
Sorry I brought it up.
I don't think Anthony meant his response to be as abrasive as it sounds.
No, I really didn't. This seems to be an ongoing issue. From now on I will include hearts and rainbows with all of my replies. Or maybe a disclaimer...because hearts and rainbows suck.
I've found that either Black Flag or a really flat rock work better than Raid!
Of course your mileage may vary.
