The original post: /r/datahoarder by /u/Heavy-Amphibian-495 on 2025-06-10 04:48:00.

I have a spare PC that I want to run docker apps 24/7 like Immich and Nextcloud and other stuffs (as a sync/backup/files serving server)

I have 4 drives in total (ST26000NM000C 26TB) manufacturer re-certified from serverpartdeals.

And would like some advices on which raid config (or if to use raid at all).

For now I think a single 26 TB would be more than enough, so I figure that I would go with:

  • 2 drives in RAID 1

  • 1 drive as a primary backup

  • 1 drive as a secondary backup

If there is better configuration please enlighten me. Thanks
