Can a r-pi be set up with RAID easily?
perhaps yes as it is more or less normal linux, but where do you attach the
disks - do you think of using a SATA extention?
I do not know what is the throughput of such extentions, but should be
considered.
Yes a rpi can run software raid with mdadm. In this case I would use a
rpi4b with USB3 and USB to SATA adapter but be aware that the rpi is at
the moment not fully supportet by debian
(https://github.com/lategoodbye/rpi-zero/issues/43). If raspian is good
enough for your needs it would be an option. With the restrictions I
explained before.
If you are loking for a ARM NAS have a look at https://kobol.io/ it has
SATA ports.
I have a old QNAP TS-219P II NAS but if I would build a new one I would
looking for a bord with Atom CPU or somethink like that to minimize the
energy costs.
