But, I still want more than raid 0 for this backup set in the long run. Currently I have at least 1 instance of all this data on 2 USB drives (dozens of drives total, but less than 100 (I think)).
Going forward I want to buy 10TB drives (or larger) and consolidate the backups, freeing up the existing USBs for primary storage.
I hadn't thought about offsite. Since this data is so static, maybe I should eventually build 2 and use DRDB to replicate to an offsite redundant copy. That actually sounds like some to add to the plan.
There is little point in a DRBD setup for data that doesn't change (or hardly ever changes). A daily rsync is probably easier.
rsync is probably reasonable for this data. I have an unmetered pipe at my office, but not my house. Just need another similar site, hopefully within a driveable distance. But that is phase 2.
