Unless you're mirroring across more than 2 drives, you have an AID setup.

- daveguy 10y agoYou are incorrect. RAID 1 is a mirror setup. There are two drives with exactly the same information. One of the two drives is redundant. RAID 1 does not include striping and only requires 2 drives for redundancy.
- Sanddancer 10y agoI think what DDub is getting at is that there is no redundancy for the data received while the disk is mirrored to the new twin. For that, you'd need a mirrored pair plus a drive to yank out as the backup.
- daveguy 10y agoAh, that's a good point. When you first put the fresh drive in it would be AID for a while... and no one likes AIDs.
