1343075	2013-05-25 01:52:00	will mount them using these dx.com and pricespy.co.nz i realise raid55 is not a backup so multiple backups are enabled through this dx.com cant make the raid too large as a backup will need to be stored on a single drive, they're up to what 3 or 4 TB now? some rethinking is in order	Mirddes (10)
1343076	2013-05-25 02:04:00	single drive, they're up to what 3 or 4 TB now? individual 2.5" drives, they're up to what 2TB now?	Mirddes (10)
1343077	2013-05-25 02:11:00	raid 6 would, imo, be a more practical approach for redundancy and space efficiency.	inphinity (7274)
1343078	2013-05-25 02:19:00	pricespy.co.nz i was thinking one of these 2=3 instead of the 3-4 variant raid55 is more drives of parity, seems more reliable. would there be any real performance difference between raid 6 and raid55? is it safe to do this as software raid? ill be usign several differnt controllers and software seems to be my only option im building a multi-seat mainframe-like server thing. this is the main board www.asus.com	Mirddes (10)
1343079	2013-05-25 03:08:00	raid 6 it is then. 8 drives seems most practical	Mirddes (10)
1343080	2013-05-25 03:27:00	seems this idea shall not bear fruit. forums.seagate.com SSHD is unsuited to raid	Mirddes (10)
1343081	2013-05-25 03:47:00	is PCI still good enough for raid? dx.com	Mirddes (10)
1343082	2013-05-25 04:43:00	in the interest of performance, setup and cost i have decided a 3 drive raid5 shall be sufficient. OS on a 32GB SSD data on a 2TB raid5 array, backup onto a 3TB removable HDD intrl.startech.com this should be sufficient for 4 seats	Mirddes (10)
