Maybe you can explain this to me… I’ve heard this countless times over the years, but I can’t figure out how it’s measured?

Is it based on if MC is taking average human strides? It seems like a ridiculous metric.

I’d give em 50 bucks and a swift kick in the dick…but that’s the best I care to do.

Yeah, it’s been a long time since I’ve looked at and kind of RAID/Storage/data preservation stuff… like 256GB spinning platters were the “hot new thing” last time I did.

I’m starting from scratch…in more ways than one lol

Very cool, this is actually the sort of thing I was interested in. I’m looking at building a fairly heavy NAS box before long and I’d love to not have to deal with the expense of a full raid setup.

For stuff like shows/movies, how do they perform after recovery?

Yeah, that’s generally my consensus as well. Just curious if someone had a better way that maybe I didn’t know about.

I’ve never been a big fan of RAID for this reason… but I’ve also never had enough mission critical data that I couldn’t just store hard copy backups.

That being said… let me ask you this:

Is there a better way than RAID for data preservation/redundancy?
