RAID 0 is the best way to ensure data redundancy. It's what we use at every Fortune500 company and there's not an issue.
I prefer RAID -1, which is like RAID 0 except that you routinely yank one of the drives so that only the fittest of the bits survive, greatly improving the quality of your data!
Evolution in practice!
But it's still not a backup strategy. You should always have a second partition on the server that you sync your data over to. For performance reasons this partition should be on the same RAID 0 array.
Backing up to a different partition on the same RAID array sounds like a good way to lose all your data.
The backup should be physically separate from the original.
Yes, and it should use another type of media, like tape, glass, stone tablets or optical media
We have a bard travel accross the lands and carry out our data by singing epics about it.
That's a valid backup because it's a different media, correct?
It shall live on through the generations
NEVER test your backups. It wears out the tapes faster.
This guy RAIDs
Shadow legends?
RAID: Shadow Legends™ is an immersive online experience with everything you'd expect from a brand new RPG title. It's got an amazing storyline, awesome 3D graphics, giant boss fights, PVP battles, and hundreds of never before seen champions to collect and customize. I never expected to get this level of performance out of a mobile game. Look how crazy the level of detail is on these champions! RAID: Shadow Legends™ is getting big real fast, so you should definitely get in early. Starting now will give you a huge head start. There's also an upcoming Special Launch Tournament with crazy prizes! And not to mention, this game is absolutely free! So go ahead and check out the video description to find out more about RAID: Shadow Legends™. There, you will find a link to the store page and a special code to unlock all sorts of goodies. Using the special code, you can get 50,000 Silver immediately, and a FREE Epic Level Champion as part of the new players program, courtesy of course of the RAID: Shadow Legends™ devs.

Nah, WoW. Off the company RAID.
Preferably something geographically separated from the server as well in case of some kind of physically destructive event like a fire.
Most people don't know this but RAID6 is also a fire deterrent
It also is excellent at keeping out ants.
You rarely see ants in datacenters and its because of all the RAID.
I can validate this. I work as the IT ops guy for every Fortune 500 company and we only use RAID-0 for backups.
A singular raid0 for all of them to make sure it's safe
what? 🤨
You made me doubt a second
