Thread: Software RAID 1 setup
problem: want have offsite copies of /home , media backups. not want use web based solutions (time, money, control). plan data 1 tb drive , mirror drive using raid 1. mirror drive stored offsite , brought weekly updating. have kingwin kf-1000-bk 3.5" internal hot swap rack removing/inserting mirror drive.
questions:
1. formating of drives required before setting raid. did: format drive - guid; format volume - ext4; format partition - linux raid partition.
want know if using guid cause problems raid 1 (its newer more features).
used command > mdam create raid. raid syncing drives takes long time don't know if going work.
in advance suggestions.
