If you're paranoid ;-) you could use linux mirror on 2 (or more, for the more |
8 |
paranoid ;-) ) storage devices. |

When you do raid you should conduct some extreme tests: disconnect on heavy |
11 |
load, burn one of your CFs with lighter, etc. to prove yourself that it is |
12 |
worth of the extra job you do (well I do raid everything I have of servers, |
13 |
it makes me sleep better, but once I had a raid and...) |

If I'd have to create some extremely durable storage I would use the simplest |
16 |
solution, so its linux raid. But it is generally safe to leave all on ro |
17 |
partition with hardcoded default configuration (or steps for acquiring this |
18 |
configuration) and make the rest as small as it could be. |

Oh, but that was general anyway. |
