> Is it hard to set it UP RAID-1 Joseph, Here is an excellent link for you to read. I'm *NOT* saying use BTRFS, as it may or maynot be the right choice for you at this time. What I am saying is many folks are very happy with BTRFS and eventually, many folks believe that btrfs will be a worderful FS choice. Choices that encompasse mirroring and many other features of an advanced file system are goals for btrfs as well of other FS offerings. Naturally expect folks to become quite animated as you openly discuss file system choices. File systems chioces with raid are very important as to the exact goals that are BEST for YOU. https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ UseCases#How_do_I_create_a_RAID1_mirror_in_Btrfs.3F The choice of a file-system here at Gentoo, is always a defensible event, so it is not to be made lightly. hth, James
