hello!
in the near future, i'm going to need to put together a 1U server
for running a FreeBSD server system. One of the things I would like it
to have a RAID 1 support, set up in such a way that if a disk fails,
the system can keep running with the other. Ideally, the fix for a bad
disk would simply be to put in another disk and reboot and be back. My
main goal is complete duplication of the data, and as simple a
replacement as possible.
The question is: just what fits in a 1U server -- I'm a little new
to these, and don't want to buy a controller that's not going to work
when i get the computer.
Any suggestions for what I might want to set up here? any
recommendations for 1U servers that I might want to consider for
maximal FreeBSD compatibility also??
thanks!
marc.
