Fernando cleverly made the statement in reference to hard drives, though he mistakenly thought that all the 16 year olds here who's only reference to anything remotely hip hop is lil' wayne or even worse Kanye fish dicks West could possibly grasp what he was saying.
Fernando, for the record, I voted you up.

I don't know about you, but I rather pay for an extra hard drive or two to have better protection of my data, especially since HDD manufactures seem to be going through a rough patch right now with higher failure rates. With RAID 5 you can sustain a 1 disk failure and with RAID 6 you can sustain a 2 disk failure with out losing any data.

Though, you should never count on just redundancy to protect critical data, you need to back up also!]]>Jun 22nd 2009 5:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/22/qnaps-ss-839-pro-tubo-nas-keeps-it-real-with-8-bays-and-4tb-rai/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/22/qnaps-ss-839-pro-tubo-nas-keeps-it-real-with-8-bays-and-4tb-rai/
You don't lose that much to RAID. You are probably thinking about RAID 1, which is mirroring. That involves 2 drives (bays). Anything higher than that, and you effectively get N-1. So 8 drives would get you 7 drives worth of redundant storage with RAID 5.

Picked up an Acer Easystore H340 for $460 Canadian, and it included two 1TB drives (the extra drive was an Acer promo ended at end of May). Other than only having 1 eSATA port and using four 3.5" drives as opposed to eight 2.5" on the QNAP, it's the same processor and memory.

If QNAP can keep the cost more reasonable (the Atom might help there) it could be a good option, especially if you don't need/want WIndows Home Server.
