I need to build a 1TB+ array sometime soon. Completed ripping my CDs to FLAC
and that takes one 400gig drive (with a little head room for growth) and am
running through my DVDs now. Quickly filling the two 250gig drives I have :(
Looking at an Infrant ReadyNAS NV, very cool :)

No matter how much space I have, I get nervous when it's half full.
Want cheap? Look at Nas Lite+

I start to feel uneasy when I go below 2-300GB free.
That's why I have 2.71TB on this box, 1.66TB across GbE (1.25TB of that
RAID5), and 10TB on the network. :)

Neil, after looking through everything I decided to go with a RAID 5
array. It provided the level of backup I needed. The only other real
option I considered was a tape drive but it was expensive for
capacities of 100GB+.

But if you want it to be useable for a Linux box you need to use FAT32 which
is limited to around 180GB per partition.
Why is that as I had my WD 250g drive with 1 partition that was
formatted in Fat32 before I converted it to NTFS ?
Christ, you act like rootkits are unbreakable.

A little research turns up that while the theoretical limit of FAT32
is 2TB per volume, Windows is limited to 32GB per volumne when
formatting. So I guess whatever util I used to created it was limited
to 191 GB. Weird. That sucks actually :(

You're both close.
FAT32 still has a cluster issue as the drive size goes up, so the
ammount you'd be losing due to FAT32 overhead on a 250G drive would
be a fair chunk, and pretty unacceptable.
At least it's not a 500g drive. ;-)

Naw, healthy heated discussion! =)
As to Halo, yawn... Vista? Ha!

Only important data gets backed up--and most of it isn't important. About
25% of the total 10TB is fault-tolerant (RAID1 or RAID5) storage. While this
certainly isn't the same as a backup (both good and bad), it is close enough
for my purposes.
