hello everyone,
My trusty old HP N40 has served me well but I have now purchased a shiny new Gen8
I am looking for advice on how to move over to this new machine ?
I currently have 3 disk raid 5 (mdadm) all 2TB WD reds..and omv on SSD boot
should I just move it lock stock and barrel to the new server as I have seen mentioned.. running omv-firstaid after the event and use software raid going forward
Or
should I utilize the inbuilt hardware raid controller (b120i) in a raid configuration (0,1,10) by backing up my data first then setting up the hardware raid (possibly buying a 4th WD red)...?
If I do the hardware option, how would I re-setup OMV to point at the data as the mount points would obviously be different and I also have other stuff installed (including crashplan for backups etc)
Or
a 3rd option ??? that I haven't thought about (maybe a plugin that I saw on omv-extras that I forgot the name of
thanks
