So as mentioned in a previous thread, due to issues with PC RAID, I was forced to accelerate my plans to get a NAS.
So now I am in the NAS club.
Previously with just normal drives I was backing up the data to a very large external drive. That is how I safeguarded my collection and that served me well through 2 PC RAID failures.
My question to you though is with a sizeable NAS, do you also backup that data to another location?
For now I can continue to do so with my external drive but at some point soon the collection will be too large to backup to a single drive.
I am running RAID 5 now but if the unit itself fails in anyway I would be SOL without a backup.
Thanks.
