Try to remember that RAID isn't backup.
You should always have a live backup.

Thinking about getting a 3TB HDD with 7200 RPM. What brand should I get?

I've had good luck with Toshiba 3TB drives. Had them for years no problems. Some of the statistics also seem to show that Toshiba drives are more reliable.

Alan Resnick is very Jow Forums.

Good luck trying to speculate into the void and attempt to encrypt your data in a way that

Otherwise you might as well upload it all directly to faceberg.
