Hi, I'm trying to build a redundant duo of firewalls/routers/gateways and I'm thinking about not putting any disks in them and instead using a usb-stick raid-1 as storage. Has anyone any experience with this?
I simply wouldn't build a system that is dependent on USB for the rootfs full-time, unless it's very unimportant. I've seen USB ports get disabled while in-use plenty of times. Instead, an ATA to CF or SD adapter can be had quite inexpensively.
