How to make the following NAS Setup

[Thibaultmol]

So for my small business I put all my files on Google Drive.

My plan is to sync all those files to a FreeNAS Box and let that FreeNAS Box to Backblaze B2.
My idea is to have a small SSD for OS and then 2 normal hard drives mirrored.
I'm thinking about using Seagate hard drives because they're cheap. Knowing that, If one of the 2 drives fails (which is going to happen). I want to just pull it out, and put a new one back in and let it automatically mirror again.

I haven't setup a FreeNAS box before. But I do have a bit of experience with Linux (and know that ZFS is the best filesystem #ZFSMasterRace)

I did see this thread: https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/backblaze-b2.40478/
But I would like to get a bit more help/info about my setup specifically.

You're going to be pretty much on your own with backing up from FreeNAS to Backblaze. As to the rest of it, it sounds like very basic stuff. What in particular did you have questions about?

Price should not really be the major factor in choosing drives. Yes, redundancy means the data is somewhat protected in case of drive failure. But drive failure is still a bad thing, and a two-drive mirror means that when one drive fails, there is no redundancy until that drive is replaced and resilvered.
