I have a nas with 2x10tb drives. I mostly just have music, movies and tv shows on it.

People talk about raid not being a backup, but is that relevant for non-original data? I mean I can always get the media again if need be. It would just be an inconvenience.

What would you do?

    Wow!

    Given your previous experience, your approach is understandable.

    I have an old raid setup on which the card died, and Crashplan deleted my Backups when the array went offline (yea, I was pissed)l.

    One of these days I’ll find a card on ebay, recover everything, and back it up again.

    If I’d had a second backup…

      Pretty sure something like 10 years ago crashplan deleted a bunch of customer data in a deduplication job gone wrong.
