Hello, I plan to upgrade from my ReadyNAS Duo that served me well for 5+ years running 2x2TB in Raid 1. Consider to buy 2- or 4-bay (or even 6-bay hope not) NAS and it is for home use with small o...
You could put a suggestion in the Feature Request & Feedback subforum.
You could also make a request at rnxtras.com (not a netgear site)
Thanks again!
If I buy 314 then I consider 2 disks raid1 and a 1 disk separate volume and 1 empty slot for future.
When I google on “btrfs raid5” I get the feeling that this in some implementations is not that well working and some fundamental development are going on. I see that the Linux Kernel version plays a role and some key improvement came with Kernel 3.19 but hard for me to judge this information, even though I searched our forum on kernel too. What Kernel does OS 6.2.4 have?
I guess this link is relevant https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID56 right?
I guess raid1 is more “safe” sort of right now, but would be good to hear something that lessen my worries.
Closely related here is whether improvement for raid5 requires some hardware upgrade,
or it is rather about firmware updates and fundamental ones like in the Linux kernel?
From the conversation I somewhat realize that I may be able to continue live with a 2-bay system 312 for a few years and then invest in a multi bay system when raid56 and necessary hardware is more mature.
