Hi there, I am currently setting up a server that will house my backups (simply using rsync). This system has 4 X 500 gb drives and I am looking to raid for max drive space and data safety. Performance is not so much a concern. My experience with software raids in nil, so some of these may seem like pretty dumb questions. I was thinking a raid 1 is probably sufficient. Would it be best to raid 1 two drives each and LVM them together? My next question would be about how to do this as I have never done a linux software raid. D
