For software raid on FreeNAS, what is the minimum disks? I have a few 500 GB 7200 laptop drives laying around. Looking to store some important stuff.

Thanks,
TT

If you find you need more information, you'll need to give more detail with your question. You can't have fewer than two disks in RAID, because then it isn't redundant, and it isn't an array. To answer better than that would need a more detailed question.

I highly recommend you read up on FreeNAS, since that is a very fundamental, very vague question. Cyberjock's guide will help you (link is in my sig below).
