I have a dev machine which has critical data on it for my web site and my business (I have a separate rig for gaming and playing). I'm getting to the point where possible downtime in the event of a crash is starting to worry me.
I'm thinking of implementing a raid 1 solution using a SCSI card controller, not integrated controller.
Does anyone know if this is actually a safe way to do mirroring? I've read recently about some bad results for raid 1 on integrated solutions which is kind of scarey.
Assuming I have quality components installed, will a raid 1 SCSI solution work as expected, allowing for little downtime and avoiding having to reinstall everything?
Thanks!
