RIAD or not to RAID? - Enquiries - 02-28-2020
I'm looking at starting a business and one of the services I'm looking at offering is a cloud base backup solution. Which I intend to do with 3 synology nas. Two at my home configured in fail over mode and another off-site mirroring the primary nas.
So with that setup I'm struggling on weather I should go raid 5 (maximum redundancy) or go raid 0 (maximum space).
I'm thinking since I already have three nas with the same exact information do I still need to raid it? Or am I being paranoid.
I will be starting off with four drives in each raid and grow them as I increase clients
