Array Advice - RAID 0 with backup or RAID 5 with backup?

  • I lost my RAID 0 array last night when 1 of the 3 drives failed. I have it backed up, albeit a little aged on a ReadyNAS.


    I'm planning to start over with a new array on 4 x WD Red, and restore from my backup. With the new array, should I just go with RAID 0 again, or SW RAID 5?


    I think what I'm asking is that if my old array had been on RAID 5, could I have replaced the faulty drive, rebuilt the array and all would have been good?

    Thanks very much. All I needed to know.


    RAID 5 it is.

    I figured that would help you choose the right option :)
