My laptop has two disks, a SSD and a traditional magnetic disk. I plan to make a partition on the mag disk equal in size the SSD and set up BTRFS RAID1. This I know how to do.
The only reason I'm doing the RAID1 is for the self-healing. I realize writing large amounts of data will be slower than the SSD alone, but is it possible to set it up to only read from the magnetic drive if there's an error reading from the SSD? In other words, is there a way to tell it to only read from the faster disk? Is that even necessary? Is there a better way to accomplish this? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
