So I recently found out that I have sh*t my leg… I was about to set up unraid but just before dipping my toes I was told that the parity drive needs to be the same or larger in size, really wish I had done more thorough reseach before recently buying that 10TB HDD hehe…
Yeah I think this is the “best” for me right now unfortunately… But even buying a new 10TB disk ‘just’ for backup is kind of unfortunate…
I might try to sell it or trade it for multiple other disks.
Gohardrive has those 10tb for under $90, they’ve been used for like 5 years but if it’s non essential data they should last a long time and might be a good option.
