Figuratively speaking, of course - the 2.5" drives are just easier for any use where the capacity makes sense.
Um, we just went from the 1TB drives to 3TB drives, so I only need four.
the offline backups, fully encrypted disks, go in the fire safe in the locked server room. Some of the systems they're backing up have HIPAA and PII data.
Do you encrypt at the disk level (hardware support?), the filesystem, or just per file with tar-type files? And has the technique ever caused data loss?
As I said, the disks are fully encrypted, using LUKS. Can't do hardware support - these are just ordinary drives. Never had data loss, unless the drive started failing.
