This feels like such a beginner question to be asking on Lemmy, let alone the tech community, but how does one go about setting up a RAID array to have my data mirrored? I only know the basics I remember about raid 1 and raid 0.
Is this RAID array something you can do without one of those “multi-hard drive units”? I have 2 16TB hard drives that I’d like to have one as a mirror copy of the first as a backup that updates at the same time but they feel too big to fit into one of those units. But maybe setting up a RAID array could be done programmatically.
I’d love and appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction!
Yeah fortunately mine are all in RAID arrays, hopefully none die in the next year or I may have to run degraded.
