i have ~24tb (6x4) unraided x3 on separate nas, one of which is only plugged in and turned on every few months. if i lose a drive, i can clone the whole thing quickly from one of the other 2 backups.. i dont have to worry about failed raid arrays and i get a bit more useful storage..
in the ~5 years i've had this setup going i think ive only lost one drive, and it started throwin smart errors long before it died
i guess im using a 'redundant array of inexpensive nas' = RAIN! is that a thing? can i make it a thing?
Curious what was the model of your drive failure? I have 6 years now on a bunch of 8TB WD Elements/EasyStore drives as well as some 10TB-14TB WD MyBook, Elements, and refurbished WD drives from serverpartdeals in the preceding years. Still no failures yet but I'm expecting one eventually.
all my drives are WD Red
