Comment on Can I use two different drives?
^this.
Right up until that job to turn the other drive and run the backup stops and then you don’t realize it until 17 months later.
Either way, RAID ain’t a backup, but it makes losing a drive easier.
If you don’t setup and monitor things properly everything fails and keep going in an unpredictable state - even a software RAID.
