How does Unraid compare to Sybology's SHR?
(alien.top)
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
SHR is mdadm RAID. It means:
If you WANT to spin all drives all the time with unraid of course you CAN do that, but otherwise you CAN spin up only the one from where you read (or the one you write to + the parity). That is of course an advantage, you can do as you wish.
