By the way, when using a backup software like Borg or Restic that are supposed to have replication built-in, do you still need things like RAID (if you intend to use the drive only for backup) ?

- asymmetric 7y agoI think the answer is actually yes, you need RAID as borg is not taking care of replication for you.
- maeln 7y agoYes sorry, I meant yes, you still need RAID.
