Hiring LTO drives
Hey all,
Dunno if anyone even reads anything in here any more - but here goes.
Had a 6TB disk in my NAS go belly up tonight.
It's only using mirroring, so I'm in the danger zone till I replace it.
I got no probs going out and grabbing a replacement when stores open again - however I feel like I don't want to just sub in a new drive without first backing up whats on there - paranoid that the rebuild *somehow* dies and I lose the other drive.
Problem is, I don't have a spare 6TB.
Wondering if anyone knows places which would rent an LTO7 drive to joe-schmoe for a weekend or whatever.
TBH it's something I'd be keen to do once every few months anyway as RAID is not a backup.
I'm in the 09
