Now I'm not sure wither to bother setting up Raid or not. These are my choices: -
1. Raid 0 using 2x 250GB. Will have to take regular backups.
2. Raid 1 using 2x 250GB. Shouldn't need as many backups as mirrored. Is speed affected? As data is written to two drives at once.
3. Raid 5 using 3x 1TB. This is prob my favourite choice, but I read that write speed can be affected.
Not sure to bother or just stick with a standard setup and take regular backups. Anyone here used raid?
