USB connected disks introduce new problems, like random disconnections.
RAID is overkill for home use. It also does not solve backups and snapshots. I use one way syncthing with unlimited history, plus usb-sata adapter.

- trte9343r4 2y agoOne way sync to couple of servers. Unlimited history in syncthing for backups.
- prmoustache 2y agoYes for home use I prefer more computers with single disks each having one copy of the data than one with RAID.
