Understandable. RAID1 can be a significant reduction of available space, but it of course depends a lot on which combination of disks you are using. In my case the difference is fairly minor. With RAID6 I would have 26 TB usable, and with RAID1 I have 23 TB usable… So to me the safety is worth the lost storage… But that if course depends entirely in which disks you have.
I know, but I’m poor and can’t afford RAID1 of the same capacity. Thanks for the advice anyhow.
