No argument there, at least on a group of drives where you |
| 10 |
want to have flexibility in the future. Desktop computers or |
| 11 |
system drives certainly. You didn't tell me what replaces |
| 12 |
the compression aspect of the problem but I'm sure there's |
| 13 |
something. It's a great strategy if you have the expertise and |
| 14 |
time to set it up and then manage it when a problem arises, |
| 15 |
if it ever arises. |

I'm just asking what's the purpose of doing LVM, or your |
| 18 |
suggested layering, specifically on a storage pool for a |
| 19 |
home user like Dale? That's the part I don't understand, |
| 20 |
especially for a new NAS user like Dale? |
