I’d want to be able to lose two drives in an array before I lose all my shit. So RAID 6 for me.
Repeat after me: RAID is not a backup solution, RAID is a high-availability solution.
The point of RAID is not to safeguard your data, you need proper backups for that (3-2-1 rule of backups: 3 copies of the data on 2 different storage media, with 1 copy off-site). RAID will not protect your data from deletion from user error, malware, OS bugs, or anything like that.
The point of RAID is so everyone can keep working if there is a hardware failure. It’s there to prevent downtime.
It’s 36 TB drives. Most people are planning on keeping anything legal or self-produced there. It’s going to be pirated media and idk about you but I’m not uploading that to any cloud provider lmao
These are enterprise drives, they aren’t going to contain anything pirated. They are probably going to one of those cloud providers you don’t want to upload your data to.

I can easily buy enterprise drives for home use. What are you on about?
