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?

Restic does nit create a single backup file. You can either pack the repository in an archive or use restic do directly backup to b2. If i recall correctly b2 is supported by restic directly.

And just to stress that point: backup > redundancy
