External storage with redundancy suggestions?
I am looking for external storage solutions for the backing up of data etc.
I previously used a USB2.0 WD MyBook, but have had several problems with it, culminating in a total loss of almost everything at the weekend.
So when I get a new storage device, I think I would like some redundancy to save future headaches. Probably a RAID1 mirror setup.
I don't have USB3.0 on the computer, but I do have the choice of USB2.0, Firewire, ESATA or the option of an ethernet based device.
I guess I need between 500Gb and 1Tb total (so 1 to 2 TB RAID1 mirrored).
So any suggestions would be welcome.
Many thanks,
Bob
PS Although I know many people are quite happy with WD, after my own bad experience I wouldn't get another one
