I am building out a second NAS to put in my garage. Very dusty, cold in winter, hot in summer. Not a great environment
I don't need plenty of space, and I also happen to have an endless stack of old, identical 8TB SAS disks. Should I go for Striped Mirrors or RAIDZ2? My thinking is that RAIDZ2 would be better, as any 2 disks can fail in that case. Make sense?
Performance is not critical, and the NAS won't have much RAM (Just 8GB)
Thoughts?
