Comment on Is this Seagate Exos drive too good to be true?

  Make that RAID Z2 my friend. One disk of redundancy is simply not enough. If a disk fails while resilvering, which can and does happen, then your entire array is lost.

    Hard agree. Regret only using Z1 for my own NAS. Nothings gone wrong yet 🤞but we’ve had to replace all the drives once so far which has led to some buttock clenching.

    When I upgrade, I will not be making the same mistake. (Instead I’ll find shiny new mistakes to make)
