Hi All,
I have purchased a new 1Tb SSD and I have two unused SATA 2Tb drives,
and currently 8Gb RAM (max capacity 32Gb DDR3 1866) I will settle for
24Gb soon.
I have two optical drives, I will settle for one.
MB = ASRock 890 GM Pro3 5 sata slots
Currently the optical drive is in slot one
So I will order my installation for the SSD in slot one and the optical
in slot 5 slots 2 and 3 are for the 2 x SATA 2Tb drives, slot 4 will be
for my old and now full Sata 1 Tb drive.l
I will back-up my Thunderbird profile(s) to a USB stick for easy restore
when the new system is running.
Question - Should I choose Ubuntu 18.04 LTS or install 18.10 which will
need an upgrade at the end of July?
Question: To set up my SSD for root and the other two drives as RAID 1
mounted as /home, is it simply a matter of choosing btrfs? I haven't
built a Ubuntu Server before.
Any "gotcha's"?
Andrew Greig
and thanks very much to Craig Sanders for his consistent support. I
think the "scorched earth" approach may fix all of my earlier confusion.
If I get stuck in the install I will write from my notebook.
