RAID 1 for ReadyNAS Ultra 2
Hello all, I have just received my ReadyNAS Ultra 2 and I wish to perform a simple RAID 1. But I would like to know it it will be possible, in cas of a hardware failure of the ReadyNAS, to take on...
Yes, yes, thanks Stephen. I know the risk with RAID 0.
As I don't need speedy writing but just backup, I only want a simple way to "double" (triple in fact because one HDD is mirrored...) the data.
In fact, I had a hardware issue with a Thecus on RAID 5 and did something wrong with my directories on my computer. Then I lost almost everything because data was no more accessible until I rebuild the RAID 5 on that NAS.
Now I managed to recover them after changing the power unit and bought a simple Ultra 2 for miroring.
So now, I just want to be able to have my data back easily in case the samething happens (hardware issue + wrong fingers :D ).
