How are redundancy and drive failure handled? The only capacity mix-and-match scheme I have familiarity with is btrfs.

- cvubrugier 2y agoSynology SHR is btrfs (or ext4) on top of LVM and MD. MD is used for redundancy. LVM is used to aggregate multiple MD arrays into a volume group and to allow creating one or move volumes from that volume group.
