I've been considering setting up a RAID-0 to make it easier to access my files without losing storage or having to swap disks, but I've seen mixed opinions about the safety of this setup. Given that a single drive failure could lead to total data loss, is it possible to keep it safe by regularly checking the SMART health of the drives? Like, checking every month or so.
