My friend is a camera operator and is looking to take two SSDs together for a portable raid. AFAIK modern raid like that is an old school approach. I recommended he set up a little server or the easy way out and just look for a JBOD enclosure. Am I wrong? Are there trustworthy enclosures that handle the raid without much set-up today?
Whenever I hear MacOS, just assume complete and utter incompetence on my part. I still don’t know how to right click to open a context menu.
But for a more general approach, how portable does it have to be, and how much storage would be ideal? A few TB, or are we talking about PB?
He already owns 2 8tb 2.5inch SSDs he is looking to house
Personally, I’d have some sort of enclosure that could also house a raspberry pi and similar, which mounts those disks in ZFS and shares them via NFS. That’d ensure compatibility with any OS, but it might be overkill.
