Hello All, We are planning to implement Bacula in our test lab for evaluation. On our backup site we have 6 x 750GB disks and I was wondering if I really need to RAID5 since this is a backup server. After skimming thru Bacula's manual, I noticed there are some sophisticated volume management techniques similar to TSM therefore I was planning to use each disk as a volume and create a storage pool. If the disk goes bad, it should be labeled as 'bad volume' and naturally the data will be gone. Once I get the disk replaced I would like bacula to rebackup the stuff I missed -- I am not too concerned about revisions and snapshots. Is this possible?
My end goal is to use all of my storage and avoid RAID5 because it takes an extra disk away and this data is not that important.
