Why not get 4x 4TB drives and stripe?
- LtdJorge 1y agoMS-01 doesn't have enough space
- b112 1y agoI agree this would work, and yes backups are important, but you're now at 1/4 reliability plus raid issues reliability. The upthread may be able to hug that, but I like a quiet night in, not an unreliable wildcat.
- cm2187 1y agoRAID 0, ok (but that's a bit dangerous). As soon as you add some redundancy, you pay either a massive price in term of capacity or in term of performance, pretty much any implementation you look at (ZFS, MD, Windows storage space, etc). Larger SSDs means less components which can fail, less power consumption per TB.
- adastra22 1y agoI fail to see how 16TB of chips spread across 4 PCBs is significantly different in risk than the exact same number of chips being collocated on one PCB.
