Re: [PLUG] Tried of Windows... |
Originally when I was setting up the “file server” I decided to keep it Windows 7 based since the drives were NTFS (at the time I was not sure that Linux could do NTFS), and I was using another SATA card (Syba SATA II card, not sure Linux could use that card) to support more drives. Frankly, it was just quicker and easier to slap the drives in there and it was up and available. The drives are not RAIDed. Eventually when the price of drives fall back to where they should be then I will take a look at striping or mirroring.
