Softraid 5 vs8/15/2023 I have enough to do as regarding running my business as it is and cannot devote time and energy to searching for hours for the right solution. If someone is going to recommend me something - then I would like all the information including how to set up this in a linux situation.Īs I have pointed out I have backups.and am not one of "THOSE" who rely on raid for a backup of my files. OK I see that more and more don't like software raid 5.by the same token most threads of the last couple of years say that hardware raid isn't a necessay way to go.and there are so many that rave about mdadm. Still not 100% comfortable with the web interface removing drives from the system without erasing them. I did ask about what happens when I turn off OMV and remove drives without removing them from the system first.have seen some thread about removing stuff from the config file so that the system doesn't look for the drives missing everytime it starts.but I do appreciate you trying to sift through my ranting and raving.think I have become less patient with age.sorry for my rant!! I have not had the need to add extra drives to a raid before and this time will be the same.I am just moving the older drives and setting up new ones in raid.also read that resyncing drives does tend to stress them more than just cleaning them and copy and pasting to new ones but I have no real experience in what is best for the drives. ![]() I was looking at raid 10 but don't really need it.don't rely on raid as a back up.just want a little more safety for the files that can save me a lot of work. I have had software raid 5 on my main server for some years now without any hitches.even if I have done a complete reinstall.no problems.I will admit to not being really good at raid scenarios but do underastand how it works. ![]() I appreciate you not reading me the riot act ![]() Perhaps someone could tell me how I can replace remove drives from the omv config (where ever it is) so that I can add new ones without being reminded that the others are missing. I will fix the raid by tests and more tests.no problem. and why they choose to be here.not forgetting that everyone has asked so called "stupid questions".I just hope they were asked "we need more info". Now I am likely to get a flood of different people writing different reasons for why no one has responded and I have heard them all especially the one about me being ungrateful for the help I have had.NOT TRUE.always grateful!!.just think it is better to say politely."we need mor info"īecause I will solve this with or without the silent treatment I just wanted to remind members why they are here. He will get the picture and ask a better question or offer more information. Ignoring a thread is not helpful, and not why most of the members are here.just don't understand why it still exists.the so called silent treatment? they choose not to reply instead of just writing."need more info" etc is stupid.just the plain fact that members have had such threads started so many times. I have always been of the opinion (and have written about it on several forums) no question however you write it. ![]() Well, I guess I must fall in one of those categories.no matter. Well, the fact no one has responded never ceases to amase me.ĭoesn't matter what forum you are on.seems to be an unwritten rule."Ask something stupid" (what members class as stupid), "Ask something without enough information" (not enough information to get a response),or didn't look at the available information available before posting.
