Does someone has experience with USB3 disks - may be in raid1 on the Rpi4? I tried years ago with usb2 disks in raid1 and the results were miserable.
A good point I missed. I should have said in my previous post that the USB interface devices that I used on the Pi 4B were both USB2 and USB3 varieties, and that there doesn't seem to be a difference in the reliability between the two. An addendum: the discs themselves were a selection ranging from 500GB WD and Seagate to 3TB HGST. I did try a couple of old 200GB Seagate drives but the Pi4B didn't recognize them on USB3 interfaces, I don't yet know why. Rebuilding 3TB filesystems gets old quickly, obviously I haven't even considered trying to build a RAID array with this rubbish. In short, still miserable. -- 73, Ged.
