    before using your hard drives in cloud, always do a FORMAT before !!! (NOT QUICK FORMAT, but SLOW format) to deallocate Bad blocks - damaged sectors, which every drive have after some time)

      @@lorgamerpizza7952 i should explain, when you use raid 0, it will split your data, raid 1 mirrors your data, so theoretically a raid 0 will have double the speed bc the load of data is split between the 2 as it happens, reducing the overall load, so if 1 raid 0 drive dies then all files are lost, but if a raid 1 drive dies both have equal data, and raid 5 is somewhere between.

    Keep in mind that in a Raid 0 (Striped) configuration, if a single hard drive fails, you will lose all your data. For the sake of data protection, you should use another level of configuration like for example Raid 5 or Raid 6 as these will allow for one or two drive failure respectively without the risk of losing everything.

    Looks like an interesting video on how to reuse extra items we might have lying around, but why does it use a text-to-speech program for the narration instead of having a person speaking? Mispronounced words like "boatable" (bootable) and "ayep-prettris" (IP address) and the uneven spacing in between words makes it more difficult to listen to.

    • @mima85
      @mima85 2 года назад +1

      @@CWYCharles RAID-0 as well as JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) volumes don't have any measure to rebuild data in case of failure of one or more of the hard drives assigned to the array. In RAID-0 volumes, files are split in chunks and those chunks are written to all the disks one after another. For instance, if you have a RAID-0 array with 3 disks and your file needs to be split in 5 chunks to be completely written on the volume, chunk #1 goes to the first drive, chunk #2 to the second, #3 to the third, then #4 again on first drive and finally #5 on the second. On the other hand, on a 3-drives JBOD volume the files go to the first drive, when that disk is full the array will start to use the second drive, and again when the second is full the array will use the third.
      In both cases, if a drive fails you loose data. In a RAID-0 array you loose the data completely, as all the files that are on the volume have part of them on the drive that failed. In JBOD arrays you loose all the files that were on the disk that gone bad.
      In conclusion, making a data storage space using a RAID-0 or JBOD array is a very, very bad idea indeed. It's way better to use other forms of RAID that have built-in data security systems (or alternatively build a ZFS volume). And in any case _DO BACKUPS FREQUENTLY_ as disk arrays with data redundancy are not meant as a backup system. They protect you against data loss and service disruption in case of some types of hardware failures, but if you get malware, files are being deleted, the file system corrupts itself, etc, your data is still gone.

    Wouldn't it be more reasonable to get a 16Gb for OS and multi TB ssd to create a server. Both being removable put them to private VPN domain storage. Everything in my home is linked to mine as file share and as long as i have the access information to my VPN u can use it . Its not expensive to get a domain now. Theirs even tutorials on how to register a custom domain without having to use a 2nd party access. I'm not a big pc technology guy, but i figured out my set up without using another persons gateway.

    Interesting. I nearly get it. Why do you do it? To access from your office or via internet to your own data. But is it save? For the moment I have 7 computers and some have 1TB, others 2TB and all my data is stored on those 7 computers. Plus copies on external not connected harddrives. What happens if you loose the Server with nearly 1TB? You're lost.. I preferred the system in windows - you can easely go from one computer to a harddrive on another computer to get data. It's harder in linux - some machines connect, i think they prefer the server setup... one with data, the rest just finding it there. Question is, do I want a server? (with more than 5TB to keep all data..)
