Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. I'm planning on using immich for selfhosted photo storage. I'm a bit worried that I may lose all my photos if my drive fails, so I'm planning on running two hdd's in raid 1 in addition to my nvme that I'm running my OS on.

I couldn't find this when I googled it, but is it possible to point immich to store data on a separate internal drive other than the one that the OS is running on?

If you’re deploying Immich with docker, you can probably specify any storage device as its storage backend.

I just downloaded their docker compose file and I see I can specify the absolute location on my machine so I think you're right. Thanks!
